Well haven't posted here in awhile but as some of you know I have gone crazy on Orion the past 2 seasons 1528 in 2022 and 2100 in 2023 total rides now on Orion 5150, see you all at the park soon.

Well since the year is almost over and each visit this season makes a new personal high for me 90 visits after 6 Winterfest visits. I finished this season with 1245 rides on Orion making my 2 year total 1522, this year I had nearly 1800 total rides on rollercoasters and added 24 new credits to my total bringing me to 150 different coasters ridden. I attempted to hit 100 rides on Orion twice this past season failing each time mostly due to issues with the ride but did hit a high of 69 rides in one trip. You can usually find me at the park hanging out with fellow passholder Jeff Hellman. If anyone else out there is over 1000 rides or getting close come find me, even if you are not say hi I love meeting fellow coaster lovers. I am going to try and get in 50 new credits next year to hit the 200 mark but only time will tell. See ya all at the park

Ok guys with the new season here I have piled on some rides on Orion already. I ended last season at 277 but i now stand at 357, I have a bet with a friend on whether I can hit 1000 total by the end of June. After that I will take a break from ride count chasing and just enjoy the park. I have only missed one operating day so far this season but I am out of town on vacation from June 7th to the 13th which makes that 1000 total a bit tough but hey if anyone wants to tag along I am always looking for ride buddies. See ya all at the park

Well I will admit I do have the all season Fast Lane so I ended up with 277 total rides on Orion this year. I had 19 visits this year including the First rider event. Had I not missed 2 visits late in the year I would have hit my goal of 300 , I did do 38 in one day. I did have the pleasure to riding with someone on Aug 10 when she was doing her marathon run of 60. Let see goal for next years total I haven't really decided but I would be shocked if I don't get to the 1000 mark as long as I get in 50 visits in 2021. I have been coming down for a long time but it was back in 2012 when I moved to the area and got a platinum pass that my visits really increased. I wish I would have lived this close sooner but I will just have to make up for lost time.
