UnrealNightmare Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Only 60. I want to get atleast 100 ride in this season though. But really I don't ride it alot so I can brag about how many times I've ridden it, I ride it because I like it, and I ride other rides alot too. Quality over quantity. I only have 19 in five trips including the two days of RWCW. I got nine rides in this past Monday, thinking it would be my last trip of the year. After wards my mom told me she wants to go to haunt. So I'm only hoping for 25 by the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondback96 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I have the most impressive number... wait for it... 1! I only rode it once on my trip to KI. Not even a second time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondback_king Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Right now I have 135 rides. I got 10 of those at ERT yesteday.........Did that guy pass darlene? if so. WOW! haha I spoke to Darlene last night and she had 602 rides in, so yes she has been passed. And I have 104 laps in so far. I am proud of that number given that I live over 2 hours away!

WOW! haha ERT yesterday was awesome, I'd always skipped Saturday ERT thinking the crowds would be worse (wrong). Today was much more crowded, although I still managed to squeak 5 rides in before the mob arrived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M & M Productions Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Not counting...just enjoying the ride every chance I get to ride it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIfan1980 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Not counting...just enjoying the ride every chance I get to ride it! Good for you. For those of you that aren't counting, only have a few because you like to ride lots of other things, or don't even want to ride it - that is your choice and don't let any of us who are counting make you feel bad about it. In my many years riding, I've never counted before but decided to on DB this year after meeting markr one day. I'm glad I did because I find it fun (and I'm doing it for me).

coaster_junky Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 i'm at 10, i wish i had more rides on it, but i never got to get to the park on one of the days where the line ended at the bottom of the stairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomkatt7 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I am one of the people that do not count. Not for any reason other than I can''t keep up! I get to the park, start running around, and loose track of what I rode, and how many times! I know that I rode DB either 6 or 7 times, which doesn't seem like a big deal. But, for people that ride a lot, if you count, and forget one or two rides per trip, after a few years that adds up quite a bit. All I say is, I have ridden The Beast, and The Racer a Lot!!!!

I figure that if you are going to ride a ride that much, you might as well count. And it does add to the fun. ( Otherwise I wouldn't do it. ) Great seeing you yesterday, KIfan1980.

HandsUp Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Just got my 100th yesterday! That had been my goal for the summer, but I still want to keep riding for sure. That thing never gets old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyMan98 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm so stupid I didn't realize what topic I was on and I thought you meant you just turned 100 years old. Duh. Still at zero. I'll probably ride Diamondback the Friday night I go on August 22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goofywdw Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I just hit my 70th tonight on Diamondback but I made it to 71 tonight. However, I also hit my 100th ride of the season on Flight Deck tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markr Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 You all might know a gentleman named Gary. ( Don't think he is on KICentral.) Just found out he reached his 1000th ride tonite. He was with Pki Boy and Kat. Congratulations to you Gary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was with Pki Boy and Kat. Congratulations to you Gary. That is truly awesome for Gary! I've ridden with him several times this season and seen him in the Single Rider line a bunch also - very nice guy. Just think 50 hours riding Diamondback for him - Sweet!

KIfan1980 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 So Darlene isn't the record holder? No, sometime back in late July/early August, Darlene was away from the park for a couple of weeks which is when Gary overtook her. From what I've seen, Gary also tends to stay at the park more, while Darlene often leaves in the middle of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondback FOF Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I am up to 29 rides. While in line for one of my rides today (well, I guess yesterday now), there was a fight. It was crazy. I will have details in my trip report that I will try to write tomorrow (later today, I guess). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
