Ahh, confusion on where to post trip report. Anyway's here it go's

Time of Arrival -2:30 PM
Weather Estimate, 60 degrees, Partly Cloudy, Winds 20-30 NE
Crowd:-Light to Medium

Blue Streak, Back Seat, 5 minute wait.
Was it just me, or are those new style lap bars this year? Whatever, my ride was smooth and had some good air cause I had good distance between me and the bar.

Magnum, Back Seat, 30 Minute wait.
Those new body's are so sexy. Also some extra padding appeared to be on the bar. The ride it self was smooth, yet slow. When I rode, it was struggling against strong winds off the lake which made for a slow return. Great Ride though!

Gemini 5 times, Middle Seats (none backwards ;) ) 5-10 minute waits
Also I noticed some extra padding this year (or is it just me)?. Smooth as always and TRIMS OFF :). Red train went down so I left.

Blue Streak 4 times, Walk ON's
Continued having some nice rides.

Raptor, 8-1 (far right) 20 minutes to get to platform.
I guessed it was around Five and waited for the GTTP crew. Unfortunately I guessed wrong So I missed you guys :(

Anyway I got on the platform and it Broke Down for about 20 minutes. The Crew said they did have continuing problems that day. The nice thing was they did keep us informed and even one member appeared to say what it was and how long it would take. Also I noticed new harnesses. 8-1 was of course a treat and ultra smooth. I don't see how people can claim there are no good G's on Raptor. The Harness started in the highest position with the belt and clicked down 2 when I finished. No G. Forces my Cactus.

Departed 6PM *** This post was edited by Joe E. on 5/6/2001. ***

I also said extra padding on Gemini. I meant on the lap Bars :-P
