Multiple Rides without getting off

I rode 105 times in one day on Timbers...I left the platform twice all day. The most consecutive for that was 76. I had some serious coaster train tan lines to show for that one.

18 on Nitro on opening day. There were so many empty seats I just kept filling in those seats.

Don't Fight It, Ride It, RAGING BULL!!!!!!- Six Flags Great America

RWB was often running at least two times through last year without stopping. I took 14 rides and that was enough for me.

Two years ago I got 'stuck' on Roadrunner Express at SFWoA for 10 laps as the ride op found it funny to leave me on alone on the ride for that long... That was the last time I went on that ride.

There were times that I would sit on S:UE and Villain for extended periods of time, but I can;t recall how long....

SFWoA on 'off days' is a great park to get a lot of rerides without having to leave your seat.

SFWoA is great during Fright Fest, the place is abandoned. I got 27 rides on S:UE without any threat at all to losing my seat. 2nd to last seat on a cold rainy night. It was great.

Well, jimmybob, when there's *such* an obvious double entendre sitting there in the thread title, you *had* to know I'd getting around to pointing it out somewhere...:)

Dangit! I got here too late! I was going to say something about always getting off...no matter how many times I went around.

But I did manage 40 rides on the Tidal Wave at GA one evening. The park hosted employee events every so often. They would open up a coaster or two and let us at it. When I finally did get off, I felt drunk.

40 in a row during Millennium Mania in the same seat on Magnum, I ended the day with 81 laps in 6 hours. I was sitting in 32 so reriding was no problem physically. I could have come close to 100 but they went down twice once to take off a train and another time for a wheel and a third time I got out for the bathroom.

"How do you own disorder?"

I dont understand how anyone can stay on a coaster for a lot of rides, as I always seem to get nasty Ride Ops who say Sorry you have to go back round and queue up again(This has happened many times even when there was not a queue)

I guess the best I have managed was riding the Mine Train at Alton Towers 3 times in a row last year. I have also ridden a few various coasters twice in a row(Nemesis, Space Mountain at DLP and Top Gun at PGA to name a few) but thats the best I have managed.

If we were to count ERS sessions however, I can say I have ridden Colossus at Thorpe Park 18 times in a row, Basiclly while on an ECC trip, they set out a challenge to anyone to see if anyone could handle as many rides as possible, and believe me, it was an incredibly hard challenge, but I somehow managed the amazing feat and so did many others :)

Last Friday I went to BGT and was able to ride Kumba 4 times without getting off. I could have rode it the whole day, but me and my friends started to get sick because it was right after lunch and all 4 rides were in the back row.

All this talk about Millennium Mania makes me miss it even more now that it's gone. :(

I got to ride Superman Ride of Steel (SFA) 5 times, there wasnt a line, so the ride Op let us get rides over and over until park closing.

I gotta tell you it was amazing! I plan on doing this again but im aiming for 10 rides. ;)

It was the Monday after Halloween at KBF. My buddy Ivan and I swung by Knotts Berry Farm before I had to leave for the airport to see if I could get any more rides on GR or Xcelerator. As we walked over to Xcelerator we noticed that no trains have been sent through, but we still went to go check anyway. Come to find out that they were open, just that noone came over to ride it. We rode an amazing 25 times without getting off. The only reason we had to get off is because I had to catch my flight! Boooo!

Oh, Im sorry Sean that you still have NOT ridden this coaster yet! I dont mean to be rubbing salt over your wounds. j/k- I love you man!

134 times on Superman:Ultimate Escape. Would have been more if it wasn't closing time :(

11 times in a row on Vortex at PKI, could have been more but didn't go over there until approximately 9:30 when the park closed at 10. Tried to watch the fireworks upside down on the loops.

6 times in a row on SOB. Too bad that doesn't count because it wasn't during normal operating days, it was during the Paramount Parks softball tournament one day at lunch.

That's alright Matt. I will be in the area again in late April and if I know in advance that it will be running that day, there is a chance that i might make it back there. If not, I won't bother.

-Sean (who has the funny feeling he is going to be breaking his own personal record for rides sometime this year) F.

I once rode Raging bull 11 times without getting off. It was during the last blast last year. Also rode batman the ride 13x straight. Thats it lol

58 times on Rampage.

8 on Expedition Ge Force.

My personal best was 15 laps on Rebel yell back in 01 although I had to switch seats a couple of times I always managed to stay on the same train.

ColossusHennesay,you better try to get in those 10 laps on SFA's S:ROS asap this season,who knows I might just beat you to it.

60 rides without getting off on S:UE... twice. 121 rides in one day. The next day I only got 100 rides.
