Pete thinks Trim Squeak is worse, but I disagree. Unfortunately he has made the poll so that we only get 1 vote and he cast it. Still thinking about getting my own avatar.........

I haven't enjoyed the pleasure of Ratler (yet) but I'd hate to waste a vote, so on the principal that a womans intuition is invariably wrong... Lisa you can take my vote on proxy for Ratler.

Hey Ryan - you don't have to vote (I hope I am not too late). Just click on 'view results' near the top.
I've not voted, since I've not ridden the R*ttler. But Mean Streak was mean enough for me. It wasn't too bad at the front of the train (although the fact it started raining as I left the station wasn't good) They wanted me to go round again after my second go - in the middle of the train, but I was yelling to be let off, since it felt like it was trying to shake itself to pieces!!!!!

And I'm rattled about what happens when I type rattler (But R@ttler looks ok )
You could say that I'm rattler-ed about it

There's something weird going on here!!!! The word 'rattler' was replaced by "Apple Coaster" when I posted before. My previous post does not make any sense now

I have not been on Rattler either but last week got the chance to do Mean Streak and I loved it.
It is a shame about the trim on the first drop but I love the sheer violence of the ride

And make it a trip I can afford to go on, as I'm missing out Big time by the sounds of it, and I have never done a wooden "Apple ride"
Blimey, I actually posted on a U.S thread

I do like a rough ride, and the term " sheer violence " has a lovely ring to it, but....when the vibration goes straight to the brain, not fun.
It is like being hit on the head lessons

Exactly. Being shook around is all part of the fun, but when it feels like your in a boxing ring and losing then it's not fun and probably none to good for you.
A few of the 'rough' woodies on the US trip were much improved and quite smooth if you sat in the middle row of a 6-seater car, but over the wheels was another story.
