So many great coasters and several ticks I need to do. Maverick was shut all day, Iron Dragon shut when we passed it and I did not do Wicked Twister as I was a bit under the weather and exhausted at that point. One let down was Disaster Transport as we queued for ages and it did not seem worth the wait. Actually not having done WT or from memory another reverse coaster was why the reverse entry into Revolutions loop during this year Bash was such a wierd experience! _________________ Steve Member of 'non rollback' Stratacoaster club 06/08.

They have lots of coasters, but nothing world class. Raging Bull never really got raging, Superman Flying coaster was nearly unridable, American Eagle was big, but unimpressive. But it is close to Chicago, so helps close the loop. On the other hand, Indiana Beach is one of the Coolest places Ever! Lisa loves Cornball, and they have the new Steel Hawg. HW has the Voyage (which we have not ridden since it opened) and Raven. Its Killer! We've done KI enough, but then comes Cedar Point, where seven times isn't enough. Can you say Rollback?! Of course the best thing about the trip is the chance to spend a week with all you all!!     _________________ Yankee Freeloader  Pete Rollback Queen  Lisa Back to top c anderson Hyper Poster Joined: 31 Oct 2007 Posts: 274 Location: Ashford Posted: Thu May 07, 2009 4:08 pm    Post subject: Indiana Beach also has a lake, with speeding tickets ready for Rough rider so looks to be a great trip _________________ Regards C Anderson Back to top Boozytwin1 Junior Poster Joined: 12 Oct 2007 Posts: 76 Location: Wigan Posted: Sun May 24, 2009 6:27 am    Post subject: All being well, I hope to make this my first Club US trip...   I've done Cedar Point before but the others would all be new ground for me.   Holiday World looks to be a cracking park with some great woodies!

Just wondering as I am really keen on going to one and as a newbie, I'm not entirely sure of the process.......any tips? Hi Geek. It's a draw and application details were in the current issue of Airtime posted last week. Some details for this trip - the airport and airline is Heathrow / BAA, one week with five main days coastering in 5 parks, cost of the trip is £1,300 with three installments - an initial deposit of £300 due soon followed by two further installments of £500 spread over many months. A total of 53 members going (you have to be a club member). Hope that helps. Steve _________________ Steve Member of 'non rollback' Stratacoaster club 06/08.

On past trips people have followed along in a hire car, and one one occasion a mini bus was hired. Following along you'll still stay in the same hotels, take part in the ERS' but will have to do the driving instead of Bob. So don't worry too much about the drawer as Nev will do his best to ensure no one is left disappointed. _________________ RCCGB Membership Number 1915 www.coastertouring.com Roller Coaster videos and much more. http://vimeo.com/channels/coastertouring NEW VIDEO: September 2009 Prater Park Back to top smiler Strata Poster Joined: 23 Sep 2007 Posts: 672 Location: Cheltenham Posted: Wed Sep 09, 2009 6:43 pm    Post subject: Got forms today fingers crossed   _________________ Naked roller coaster world record holder 2004 Biggest ghost hunter record holder 2006 Photos updated (14/12/09) Winter wounderland and the O2 fair Flicr photos update (14/12/09) Video update (03/11/09) Back to top Andy Hine MBE RCCGB Chairman Joined: 23 Sep 2007 Posts: 480 Location: Seat 3, Phoenix, Knoebels Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2009 2:33 pm    Post subject: Yet another new tax!!! European Union Threatens Retaliation if U.S. Imposes New Travel Fees September 8 Daily Mail (London, England, UK) John Bruton, the European Commission’s (EU's) Ambassador to Washington, criticized the proposed $10 fee on international travelers in the Travel Promotion Act. He said if the EU determines the new United States registration system and fee amounts to a visa, the EU may consider requiring visas for U.S. travelers. Many Europeans see the issue as another burden imposed on travelers by the United States.

I've been meaning to try and book on a USA trip for a while now, but since the introduction of the shorter ones I've been having difficulty keeping track on which trips go on what years! Although the shorter trips are generally a little cheaper than the traditional fortnighters, I'm thinking that - Like Mophead above - I'd rather save up and go for one of the longer ones. Given that I'll probabally only be able to afford one USA trip in my life (And even then, I'd be "tacking" it on to the start or end of a longer trip to the US) IIRC the two week trips give more coasters to the Dollar, don't they?
