Meh those are weak trips! For this years PPP, I left friday at about 4pm, drove to St. Louis to pickup a Kurt, continued through the night to Akron, Ohio to pickup Josh and Kara, THEN continued to PPP for the day! Stayed the night in a hotel (thank god!). Sunday we went to Dorney for 3 hours, then to SFGAdv til closing. At closing, we drove all the way back to Akron, and then to St. Louis, and THEN back to Southwest Michigan! Got home Tuesday morning around 2:30am. 2900miles in all, and totally worth it!

Chris, this August I flew to Seattle for week to help a friend move back to Mi. I got to meet Nasai on that trip too. He's an awesome guy! Anyway, we hitup Fun Forest, then drove back from Seattle in a Uhaul to Silverwood then back to southwest Michigan! It was a 4day trip, and about 2600miles. Ahh... good times!

Oh BTW - Kristin and Rob (Kicksthesky and Robodud) had a 4park day I believe. I'm waiting for them to chime in with the details.

Kennywood, Conneaut Lake and Waldameer in one day....quite a combo if you love woodies. It was 75 degrees and perfect on that Tuesday, great times had by all. That was with a lap on Devil's Den and 8 laps on Blue Streak, too. Great reading about everyone's attempts, too.

-----------------
There's nothing like a woodie...

This summer I did Blands, Lake Winnie and SFOG all on a Saturday... now there's a challenge!

Regarding Rob and Kristin's 4 parks in one day (which Jess and I were also a part of), we hit Waldameer, Conneaut, Erieview, and SFWoA in the course of 10 hours. Great times.

9/28 and 10/5 2002: Legend and Raven and Phoenix...OH MY!

May 26th I hit 4:

Kennywood, Lakemont, DelGrosso's, and Conneaut Lake

July 31st I hit 5 parks:

Disneyland, California Adventure, Adventure City, Knott's Berry Farm, and Castle Park

All together on my California/Tijuana trip this summer I hit 17 parks in 7 consecutive days and rode 59 different coasters.

I've had a few insane trips, SFA, HersheyPark, Knobels, and dorney. Would have hit Great Adventure if not for traffic. By the way by working at Hp with a SF pass that trip was completely free. I've also done a Delgrosso's, Lakemont, Idelwild adn kennywood trip in one day. Only paying the $6 admission for Lakemont on that trip. and both of those trips I hit every coaster in every park.

Memorial Day weekend of this year, we started out on Saturday morning from New Jersey and hit: Seabreeze, Martin's Fantasy Island, and SFDL.

It was a very long day from departing NJ to closing SFDL.

Number of coasters ridden: 227

Okay, this one is still unbelievable to me. At CoasterCon this year, on June 20th we did Legoland, Adventure City and Knott's all in the same day. Now remember, Legoland is just north of San Diego, so there was lots of driving done that day. On another day at Coaster Con, we went to Scandia, Castle Park, Pharoah's (didn't pay to get in because it was over-priced) and then back to KBF.

Too bad Legendary (Joe) isn't able to see this, knowing him, he has done it multiple times.

Scorcher: You mean you didn't want to pay $12 for a very poorly maintained Galaxi and a handful of crappy flats? What kind of credit whore are you?? ;-)

Only if we can go to Lagoon, but I think we may need to get Corey to drive! ;)

Wanna Ride A Woodie?

On August 7th we hit Coney Island (technically 3 different parks) then drove to Seaside Heights and visited Casino Pier and Funtown Pier.

That's 5 different places with at least one roller coaster in one day.
