Need advice for coaster road trip

Hey gang

I just found out I will be going on a "road trip" with the YMCA - three parks in six days. The parks are, in this order, Six Flags Great America, Kings Island, and Cedar Point. I've been to Cedar Point before but what are the must-ride attractions at the other two? Thanks.

Ya know...the internet is a wonderful thing:

Well I'm sure the guy would like to know which rides are worth riding, not just what rides they have.

Be sure to ride the Viper at SFGAm, it is a great woodie - front seat is best. Raging Bull is quite good too, especially in the back.

As for PKI, make sure you save the Beast till last and try and ride it in the dark.

Grant - the problem with answering "what rides are worth riding?" is that you'll get a different response from everyone. For example I think The Beast is *way* overrated and it would not be one of my suggestions. And he said "attractions" not "coasters"...you left out the flats and water rides.

Besdies, who are we to know what kinds of rides he/she likes? Better Rider of Steel look at each park's ride selection and decide his/herself

PKI..must do's

delirium, beast(at night) awsome, Drop Zone, FoF, Racer(backwards), Tomb Raider(if its not open dont wait), Scooby Doo, SpongeBob 3d, wild thornberrys raft adventure, Vortex(if line is short).....i guess thats it....not really much 2 do....SOB(Son of Beast)..hurts but still you can ride it if u want.

Again, ryan c's post illustrates the problem with asking "what's worthwhile." It's my opinion that he left out Top Gun, Adventure Express, Racer [frontwards] and the Flyers. Likewise I don't feel FoF, Racer backwards, and Beast are "worthwhile."

Make sure and look twice before crossing the street, friend. My Sicilian relatives have made a career out of using others as a "speed bump" ;). As my uncle Dominic always used to say, "one more move to p*** me off kid and you 'gonna get free swimming lessons with a cement kickboard." Aaah, memories.

I agree with moosh Beast is over rated. Its actaully boring in the second half. I almost fell asleep and would've if it was as rough as it was. Had a huge headache when I got off. But dont take my word for it ride it and see for your self.
