I'm at 16 right now but for me, it's not about the numbers. It's about having fun and enjoying the newest member of the KI family.

Wow I only have 7 :( I can't convince my sister to just ride Diamondback over and over again! :P

well thats no fun. you can actually get (extremely) wet on Diamondback if you try. i did it by (a very stupid) accident. not sure if youre supposed to though...

I actually got wet in row 16 of the red train Sunday. I had my hands straight up and it still got me. I was told that the red train will more often than not get you wet. I don't remember which train it was on, but on Friday, I got soaked in the right side of row 16. Absolutely soaked. That one knocked my arm forward quite a bit. I was actually trying to get wet on that one though.

My ride count was at 20 on Saturday.

That was before today when Kat randomly IMed me and said I should go to the park with her. Now I'm at 24. :lol:

thats exactly where i got wet. red train. if you put any part of your body out just slightly back, you'll get wet. i started by accidentely putting my hear back there, and next thing i know, my hair is wet and my face is soaked

I have been really behind this year, I got 1 on opening day, 1 on the 26th, and 4 yesterday, bringing me to 6 total.

On my second ride yesterday, I was in row 16 on the left side. The guy next to me decided to turn around to look at the splashback, and got soaked. My left armpit got a little damp from the spray.

I was in the second seat from the back yesterday. I turned around to look at the splashdown.. WOW. You don't realize how big it is until it's practically in your face.

Right at 25.

This has been discussed before but night rides are much better, not only for the visuals but because the ride is faster. We sat in the very back row and we were still catching air on the "up" part of the second and third hills. We even got some fantastic floater air over every hill in the middle of the train!

Marathoned in the SRL today. It was great.

That may have been you that I kept meeting in line ^_^ ...I was wearing a Danville baseball shirt...

There were quite a few people doing that, though.

Due to being idle from KI this whole weekend my ride count remains at 32.

However, obviously next weekend should get that total above 50! :D

Were you wearing orange rimmed sunglasses and had just come from work? If not then it was just a random guy marathon-ing, however the conversations we had in line were pleasant...

Don't feel bad, I was feeling pretty good about my 10 last night until previously mentioned man in orange sunglasses mentioned his 40 laps he got that day, and then the guy behind us said he had 107...I quit :P

I'm still in the single digits, but on Saturday afternoon rode with someone who has been marathoning Diamondback and was on ride 73 (he was hoping to be over 100 by the end of Sunday). I hope to hit 100 sometime this season.

Hopefully, during the ERT on Diamondback, I want to get around... 50? 50-22=28 Rides on DB this weekend..

I think I can do it :)

I have 22!

Maybe more this weekend but I don't know for sure seeing that it is Mother's Day, my mom's birthday and I work Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We shall see.

That might have been me. Was at KI Saturday afternoon for just a few hours and rode rides 71-75 that day. Would have had more but had Bat Mitzvah to attend in the morning and a dinner at night.

So that was you in a black T-shirt?

I was in the very back on friday, and I turned around on the splashdown, and boy is it amazing! Its like god striking the water right in front of you!
