Go ride some roller coasters!  You CAN!  :)

And I did, At Legoland... they were not all that huge, but they were fun,
They have a technic roller coaster (Project X) that is a steel mouse,

That model is actually a clone of Wonderland's "Fly" - that was the
prototype.  It's a MACK Wild Mouse... except that one is a mirror of
Wonderland's.  I love the themeing on the cars!

(Thanks Lar)

On Monday six of hopped on the technic coaster for 3 spins around, Larry was
with us, and we were talking about the type of coaster (hence the steel
mouse comment)... I was actually thinking of the Fly at PCW when I was being
rocked for side to side, and bumping sholders with someone...


And was quite fun, we went on it 6 or 7 times...

In the Castle land there were 2 different coasters (one was gravity fed, so
I don't know if you can call it a coaster), I'll put some images up soon...

Looking forward to seeing the pictures.  When you say gravity fed, what do
you mean?  The other 2 coasters are a Caripro Batflyer and a Vekoma
Rollerskater - both of those are gravity driven...

I was refering to the lift mechinism.... (in that there was no chain
drive/Linear Induction divice to bring you to the top...

This one... The Bat Flyer... I Loved the Lift Mechanism on this one...
