Gemeni at CP, I have been riding it since I was 48 inches tall and my brothers took me to CP, that had to be about 1987 or so. In fact I think it was 87.

Does CCI know how to make a bad coaster?

That's not roughness that intensity
Magnum by far! I've logged over 1800rides, although I lost track during the end of last season. Honestly, I've lost the thrill of counting my rides.. Now I'd rather just ride and photograph instead of worrying about numbers.
BTW Robudud! There is a Magnum Fred! But where are the other Magnum freaks that grace these boards?? Dan?? Jerry?? I know Jerry's got us all beat.... ahh the things you learn and the people you meet after a year of working on Magnum. I'm gonna miss that place!

Montu, no doubt. Actual count? You guys are even *sicker* than I am? Now THAT'S sick....always good to have foplks around who make you feel just a *touch* more...normal. Hmmmm..... Anyhow, I'll guess about 350-400 laps for the "Egyptian God of Inverts",and maybe "around 300" for Kumba, the original coaster to ROAR...
I remember going on Kumba about 10 times straight one day - they don't make you leave the coaster if you are single-riding and it's a walk-on. (They do that routinely, even on Gwazi on those rare occasions when it's a walk-on...;). Well, after all those trips, the ride-op inquired about my insatiable need to ride....I told him I was SO happy it came out of rehab, I was trying to get the feel of the "new ride". He thought it was pretty funny stuff, but I really felt the difference....so much smoother....:):):)

Steel:Monster Mouse that was at Oaks Park until 1995.I rode that coaster hundreds of times between 1974-1995.It was replaced by a Pinfari Looping Star in 1996.
Wood:Vancouver PNE/Playland Coaster,closest regularly operating woodie to my home.The Puyallup Coaster TR is closer to my home but it only operates during the fair in April and September :(
