My best is 24 straight rides on the Hurler at King's Dominion last year after it rained. I could have probably gone 150 without getting any kind of brake to go to the bathroom. I have always wanted to enter a competition to see how long I could ride. I think I would end up in the top 3 riders.

You can't run and you can't hide...the beasts at PKI
I rode Katun, a huge B&M inverted nearly 30 times in one day if you can class that as rider endurance!!!
I rode Mind Eraser 25 times in a row with no rest after it rained. And one of the other reason there where hardly any lines was because school was still going in denver.

Anaconda 17x in a row @ PKD
35 on great bear (47 all day)
A couple of years ago I did the Vortex at PKI around 55 times. It just rained, and I was up there on a weekday so attendance was already low, so after the rain, everything was a walk on!

I got over 40 rides on SFO's Villain last October.
They extended the season to include the last Monday and Tuesday to attract more folks for Fright Fest. We were there Monday night with about 200 other people in the park!!
We never left our seat the last hour and a half!!
No lines, no waiting!!!
The year before we got over 70 spins on Raging Wolf Bobs the last day it ran in September.
We have marathoned on the Blue Strek at Conneaut many times. We always manage 20-30 spins on this gem before we go home!!
We went to CP and it was our SECOND day there so we had already gone on MF 4 times the day before so in the morning we ran to Raptor while everyone went on MF we got about 20 rides in before there was anyone going on it. That was really cool!!

I did the Raven 26 times in a row back in 98. For anyone who's ridden the Raven, they know that that many times in a row is a TRUE test of endurance.:)

32 rides on Superman: Ride of Steel at SFA...I consider that to be my best trip to an amusement park ever. A light drizzle with no lines for anything made for the perfect day.

16 times on the Shockwave at SFGAM, due to no line. I only had to switch seats a couple of times too!
About 65 continuous rides on the Tidal Wave at SFGAm(when it was there) back in 1984. Rode with an ACE member. The park was dead.

Koaster King, was that before or after the mod? If it was before, I applaud thee. I love rough rides, but I have doubts as to my ability to do FOF 30 times in one day.

I rode the Dragon at the Fun Dome this March about 170 times, in about four hours. Actually boarded the ride only four times, but being an arcade place, not many people were there to ride the coaster. The ride op was great, helping me keep track, turning the station brakes off, and making sure the lift was always on "high." I have to admit though, 170 times on that little thing was pretty painful, it whips you around more than enough, especially on that high lateral helix.
Last June, I also rode the Steel Phantom 60 times in a day, with my best bud Joe. That was probably the more intense day, and a lot more fun! It's surprising how much you can ride a coaster when you factor out wandering around the park, long sit-down restaurant breaks, and gentle rides.
Riding laps on coasters are probably my favorite thing to do in the world.
22 times on the hurler opening day this year, it was crazy, i ended up falling alspeep on it
Err.. uhh... twice in a row on Rebel Yell? Hehee..
