fanofFirehawk Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Over a long car ride up, left, sideways, west, yeah lets go with that to Indianapolis I thought about who I like to ride roller coasters and thrill rides with the most. Do you like to ride with, your brother, sister, mom, dad, husband, wife, friend, stranger, girlfriend, boyfriend, or anybody else. So who? 1 Quote
TheBEASTunchained Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I think I get the most out of riding with complete strangers, because were all there to have fun so why not ride with people you don't know and meet new people? In my opinion its just pretty cool to get to ride with unknown park guests and step out of your comfort zone a little bit. 3 Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 My wife and kids the most.I rode TTD the first time at midnight with a stranger,our ladies were to scared.We had several high fives and many laughs during and after the ride,great memory! Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 My cousin, Coasterfanatic2012. And his brother. 1 Quote

In my opinion its just pretty cool to get to ride with unknown park guests and step out of your comfort zone a little bit. Yeah I also enjoy riding with strangers, I have quite a few memorable experiences with strangers. At Islands of Adventure, on the Dr. Doom ride I rode with several interesting people (we went on it quite a few times). We meet two irish people who had never been on a thrill ride ever then, some spanish people, some canadians. I always love to ride with strangers. assuming they're not crazy( I have had that happen before, but haven't we all). Human beings. That's just a little odd. 1 Quote
TheCrypt Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 I tend to enjoy riding with my friends the most. I'd rather not be so promiscuous with my riding partners. 1 Quote
violakat03 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Usually, with my husband (dare-to-fly), though if we're with friends I like to switch up riding partners so I can ride with everyone at some point. 6 Quote
shark6495 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 At 27 I still like to ride with my mom. She got me to ride coasters so there is a bit of fun involved with that. My wife is not a big coaster fan 4 Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I usually ride with my cousin (TTD-120-420) or my lady friend, but I love riding with my little sister. She absolutely loves every ride she has been on, and there is just something about seeing a 7 year old on The Beast that I find entertaining. (that sounded really creepy) 3 Quote
Bennett Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 My daughter. That said, I would enjoy riding coasters with my wife, if she would actually ride them. #1 coaster chicken. 5 Quote
XGatorHead 8904 Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I like riding with friends and family, but my absolute favorite person to ride with is my daughter, GatorGirl, especially if it marks some sort of "first" for her. My avatar is the two of us on Tennessee Tornado (picture was taken on the final brake run, which we had been sitting on for over 5 minutes by that point). It was her first time on it, and her first time to be on any coaster with inversions. When we started that day, she said she wasn't ready to go upside down on a coaster, so we let it go and didn't pressure her. But she heard all of us talking about how fun TT is, and she changed her mind. She of course loved it, and also did Mystery Mine that day. Two weeks later, she rode Vortex for the first time (again with me) and loved that too. 6 Quote
Hank Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Growing up, my brother. As a dad, my kids. Now, KIC members - or musicians so we can discuss the rhythm of the roller coaster. 1 Quote
PhantomTheater Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I go to the park, and see who I may run into. Or how it usual goes, people I know come out of nowhere and "kidnap" me for the day. I have tried to get some of my Screamster friends to ride with me during Halloweekends, they think I'm weird for getting up early (10:30 am) to ride coasters. The others are afraid of coasters. One ride however, I could never drag people on was Chaos. I only had two partners for that, my sister and Kat. Everyone else was afraid of getting sick. 2 Quote
SupremoSteveo Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I like to ride with my best friends. There's nothing quite like bonding over a ride on Diamondback. I wish I could say I like to ride with my wife, but she is terrified of any coaster but the Raven at Holiday World for some reason. 5 Quote
Voicetek Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I used to enjoy riding all the rides with my girlfriend, but this season I'm looking forward to riding with my fiance 10 Quote
MDMC01 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I typically ride by myself, but if I'm with friends (or KIC members) I'll ride with them. 1 Quote
amandagail13 Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I'd have to say 3 of my friends who have passes and we normally go together. I do have to say that on late night rides on The Beast it can be fun to get to know people and ride with strangers. 2 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 When going by myself I enjoy riding with other KIC'ers and strangers. It is always fun to ride with someone when it is their first time to the park and/or the ride you are getting on. You get to experience that new thrill with them! I also love the ones who have just gotten enough nerve to ride that big ride, love it, and kick themselves for not getting on it sooner! 2 Quote
Jr for Birdy Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 I used to enjoy riding all the rides with my girlfriend, but this season I'm looking forward to riding with my fiance Your girlfriend is going to be TICKED! 6 Quote
