Top, top coasting, Richard
En route to Chicago we stopped off at Cedar Point theme park in Sanduskie, Ohio. It has lots of rollercoasters, including the 400ft+ Top Thrill Dragster:
I'm pleased to report that I completed this ride without soiling myself. After queuing for a good hour, the ride itself being about 17 seconds long doesn't represent great value for money as it were, but goodness me it's intense. An espresso shot of adreneline, compared to the more traditional coasters such as Millennium Force - itself over 300ft and offering an arguably more satisfying overall ride experience.
In our limited time here we also squeezed in a ride on the Windseeker (above) - just like chair-o-planes except that you again happen to be over 300ft in the air. We tried 4 rides in 4 hours, and barely scratched the surface of what the park had to offer.
America - where they do things just that little bit bigger.
