LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Wow, DB is totally a walk-on right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofywdw Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Ok I'm even more jealous than last Friday. I havn't been on DB in over a week because of work. Maybe I will get on it tomorrow morning before work. I'll be at season pass processing all night. Say hi if you are getting processed today.

Flyer Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I was just looking at the Web cam, and saw how uncrowded it is, so I'm gonna go over there right now and ride DB for the first time. (been to KI 3 times this year but with my 48-inch daughter each time) I figured what better time for my first-ever post. I'll let you know how much I enjoyed my first DB ride later today when I get back. I'm looking forward to the smooth ride I've heard about. A smooth ride is important to someone in the over-40 crowd.

tigellinus Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Yeah, I agree, the weather these past three Friday's as been sort of meh, but the D-back waits have been really short!! In hindsight, I almost wish I would've tried to go with my parents one of these days!! (who don't want to wait in any real lines) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I would go today but my ankle is still sore from spraining it, plus we're going next weekend for my niece's birthday . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacingFan Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I'm sitting here stuck at work (in NKY or I'd go ride and come back!) looking at the webcam and wanting to go now!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyer Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Just got back from my quick trip to KI. I gotta say, DB was indeed even better than the hype! I waited just 7 minutes in the regular queue, then walked right on twice in the single queue, then waited 20 minutes the next time in the single queue because some people were abusing it. So due to the abuse it wound up taking twice as long to get through the single queue than the regular queue. But I'm not complaining after getting to ride four times in about 50 minutes. I'm sorry if this should be on TR board, but I figured it should go here because my whole trip was based on reading this topic and looking at the Web cam. Anyway, DB is unbelievable and has surpassed Delirium as my favorite ride. Delirium was my No.1 because of smoothness, but DB is so smoooooooth. Being over 40 and getting a bit tired of getting beat up on the woodies, this is the ride for me. I just can't believe how easy it is on your body. In fact, riding no-hands is the only way to go.

LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 In fact, riding no-hands is the only way to go. I hear you. I like to go no-feet as well. When going over a hill, I found it pretty fun to straighten my feet out in front of me with my hands up through the airtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkjkj Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 That's exactly how I ride I ride like that through almost the entire ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Diamondback is the only ride I ride with my hands up the entire ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Well here in Richmond Ky we are having tornadic activity and it is pouring the rain and storming. Seeing as i just looked at the webcam it does not look like a good day to hit up KI right now due to the harsh weather we are experiencing.
