I think you can see where this is going. The park was Cedar Point, and for the uninitiated, it's pretty much all coasters. Sometimes Dad's memory is a little fuzzy on specifics.

So, yeah, I have ridden Millenium Force, despite having a major problem with heights, and a somewhat lesser problem riding in vehicles which I'm not in control of. It was pretty impressive, though.

Their pattern keeps them hidden though, so you usually don't see them till they are in your face.

I hear that's the reason Sam Neil had to reconfigure his face in Event Horizon.

Agreed. Cedar Point is my home park (I think I went 5 times this year), but my season pass works at both. Cedar Point doesn't have The Beast at night though. And Banshee is better than Raptor.

True story. The raptor is so tame I took a mixed Rubik's cube on the ride, and finished before it ended. No joke.

are some horrible trolls. Their webs are super big and strong and the spiders themselves are about 4 in across. Their pattern keeps them hidden though, so you usually don't see them till they are in your face. Freaks me out everytime.

Ever go to St. Louis and see the horse flies they have there?

Bugs at 90 mph hurt like hell.

I once rode through a mayfly hatch that I thought was dust going about 100 on my bike.

Holy fuck. It didn't hurt, but it was absolutely disgusting. Lost a little traction on the road, thought I was going to die. That was the last time I went over 90.

*Actually upon reread, you mean Power Tower.
