12 laps, Magnum mini-marathon. My friends call me crazy.
I reply: "Well it's not like I went on it 2000 times" and laugh to myself.

Wow CsTrFrK, that blows away my record. lol.
Anyway I'm hoping to go back to SFWoA on a fall weekend and seeing how long I can go on BKF. If not that than maybe a different coaster.

Six Flags, the only chain of parks that can manage to have stacking with a one train operation.
16 times on the Steel Phantom - and NO headache!!
Edit: remembered this just as I hit reply ... 11 Fire and 9 Ice on Dueling Dragons just before this past year's Tangerine Bowl (so a combined 20 for those that don't feel like adding)

800,000 years in 7 seconds: Time Machine the movie or next S&S creation?
40-something (43, I think) on Phantom's Revenge at the Discovery Channel shoot.
The most this season so far on a normal operating day has been 20 on Cornball Express. Other than that, I have no idea -- I'm sure there's a tally in between those two from past seasons.

I went on Raging Bull a total of four times in one day. It was tough but, I knew I could pull through.
LOL, I don't where you found the endurance to keep up that pace. :) But I used to go on Saturdays, and the lines were so long that four rides on RB in one day was quite an accomplishment. Most we ever got was 6 or 7, and that's with pausing every now and then for a Chewbasco marathon.

40-something on Race World's Thunder Eagle.
30-something on the Loch Ness Monster
Nothing else significant enough to speak of.

No headache? Wow, I rode the steel Phantom about 20 times in one day and I felt like a bobble-head doll . . . .
11 - Blue Streak (Conneaut Lake) (was only planning on 10, but no one was waiting so the famed "Weird Evil Carnie Guy" sent the train through with out unloading)
10 - Comet (Hersheypark)
7 - Skyliner (Lakemont)
6 - Kraken (SW Orlando), Racer & Thunderbolt (Kennywood)
5 - Montu (BGT), S:RoS (SFA), Geat Bear & Sidewinder (Hersheypark), Phoenix & Twister (Knoebels), Steel Force (Dorney), Zyklon (Delgrosso's)
I know, not very impressive to some. However, when I go to a park, I like to see the whole park and I don't spend my time just riding the same coaster over and over again. Also, when I go a park (especially a park that I have not been to before) I like to get in at least 2 rides on each coaster.
-----------------
Kind of hard to take a post as objective if a park or coaster name is part of the "user name"
Also 11 Raven & 7 Legend
12 Mega Zeph
10 Shivering Timbers (OK, Kara roll your eyes)
10 Ghostrider

Nothing... NOTHING... can prepare you for... the Fourth Dimension!
35 on Nitro, about three weeks after opening day 2002.
CsTrFrK, you said you did GASM for charity...how exactly to do you go about doing something like that, or getting involved in it?

My attitude re: "marathoning" is very similar, so I'd have to say my highest counts would be on Anton shuttles during ERT - Monte and Viper (RIP), or on Goliath, Medusa East, CI Cyclone. Therer was also Cornball (non-ERT), or on those glorious mid-Winter FL days when I've gotten a grip on Montu, Kumba, DBH, Gwazi, or Fire Dragon......all at *about* 20 laps, but I don't count...
bill saying guessing is more than just part od my job, it's FUN...(different thread)...;)
