Official Details on Kings Island's Ride Warriors Weekend! (ERT Info Released!)

[StalkerChick]

Later this week? Code for "Saturday night!"

I remember when they said "Details to be announced in January" and on January 31 they said Ride Warriors Coaster Weekend May 9 and 10.

Anyway I am looking forward to seeing full details on this. Since Trooper Mom probably won't be able to do a full day at a park, I'm gonna have to hang with someone for most of the time.

Any Voulenteers?

so far i'm by myself.. unless KI Man and Uncle Henry figure out if they're going or not *cough*slackers*cough* so as of now i'm on my own too but i theres a few of us loners out there... so maybe we can just have a huge loners group!! lol

Anyone who was there with me on opening day KNOWS I'm all about organizing a group so we can ride together! Bring it on!

[AgentSoB]

That would be great Giga... I know most of you all from events I'm just to shy to talk. Organizing a group would be a great idea.

Plus... by then we will all most likely be owners of the new KIC shirt design. We will stick out like sore thumbs.

[gigacoaster2k]

It takes someone special to make me shy. Other than that, I'll come right out and say it!

[Losantiville]

Thanks for the info update. I'm assuming that there is still more info to come, correct? Thats some great ERT though!

[kittenpooh]

I'll ride with you and Kat if I get the chance. I'd love to be part of your fun-loving group. I'll be taking advantage of the backstage tours too.

[IBEW_Sparky]

I will definitely be there, along with my Wife and a good Friend from Bloomington. I am ALL for hooking up in a similar group to what we had off and on throughout the day giga... what a GREAT time that was.

[Guest rcfreak339]

WOW! Diamonback till 1am! Giga it would be great to have a group!

[Ogrmac]

Robin and I are currently looking into reservations right now! We are SO excited for this. We will definitely join up to ride with you guys!

[iChase]

I'm thrilled to see these times. I can't wait to ride DB this late.

Ksings and I are planning on camping out in my car to avoid an hour drive and hotel fees. Any ideas on parking?

[Ogrmac]

iChase, I don't know the laws or anything, but perhaps a nearby roadside rest stop? You will have restrooms and vending machines close! Or maybe a 24 hour Walmart parking lot?

Ogrmac, who has seriously thought about doing the things listed above!

[KI Beast]

sounds like a good way to come back home after a stressful semester and finals!

[AgentSoB]

I've got my room... so i'm all ready to go. I'm glad to see the variety but I wish some SoB action would have been a part of the program. Despite that this will still be great.

[Kawana]

Wow, Diamondback until 1 a.m. That should be good for what, 3 rides?

All kidding aside, that should be very fun, I can't wait to experience Diamondback in the dark.

[gigacoaster2k]

I can't wait to experience Diamondback in the dark.

Oh, it's UNBELIEVABLE.

Angie, who managed to get in TWO night rides on opening day, including last train of the night

Nice Job, I am so looking forward to two days of riding fun!!!! Looks like Kings Island has planned another great event and form the looks of it there will be a lot of KICentral members in attendance.

[dare-to-fly]

I wish some SoB action would have been a part of the program.

So do we! And with all trimless rides.

I'm a little bothered by the fact that Diamondback is the only one open at night. It sounds like a line waiting to happen, but I'll withhold judgement. Some Beast night rides would have fit in there somewhere very well too. (Preferably trimless, if maintenance would just take them off)

[tigellinus]

^^However, I do think it's possible the delay with the event might hurt attendance some. That said, 2.5+ hours of ERT is heavenly!!

Even with 1,000 people there, 4 rides should at least be happening!

[kjkjkj]

You can now REGISTER! I am not sure what we're supposed to put for "card/membership#" Or if we're supposed to type our username somewhere...?

[CoasterFreak45]

Done! I'm glad we3 can bring 1 guest, that will be nice.

[StalkerChick]

do we know how long the registration is going to stay open?

[StalkerChick]

Thank you for registering for this year's Ride Warrior Coaster Weekend!

weeeeeeeeeeee..... all alone no guest so who's partying with me?

[standbyme]

Where are you finding this?

[kjkjkj]

You can find it here http://www.visitkingsisland.com/events/eve...46&ec_id=15 standbyme

Me and Ashers are both registered! I just put my member number for the "member/card#" form space. I hope that's right. I am so excited, this is going to be AWESOME! We will probably be only to go just Sunday or Saturday night and all day Sunday. This is coming up here in just a few weeks.

[UnrealNightmare]

Hmm I really wish I could go. I need to convince someone to come with me. Lol I don't want to make the 1 and a half hour drive alone.

[standbyme]

kjkjkj, Thanks for the assist! My family and I are (finally) now registered!

[kjkjkj]

No problem! I know, it took forever for this info to finally be released. But now that it is, I am thinking it will have been well worth the wait!
