Ok so we have done and are still doing favourite Uk Woodies and Steelies, but which Flat ride in the theme parks gets you going the most?
As ever I have tried to get one flat ride from most parks but feel free to sugest another not on the list.
For my choice it just has to be Slammer, the most intense ride experience I have ever had anywhere. It beats one hell of a lot of coasters for me, a ride I truly love for its extreme ride  _________________

Well, I have voted on the list - and bling is a firm favourite for me.
But where is Drayton's Maelstrom? It's not as re-ridable as bling (for me), but I do love the sensation for the first 2 or 3 goes. |

My personal favourite is either Maelstrom or Vortex. Similar rides, but differeing experiences I think. _________________ Steve

The Circulator is a Farfabbri Evolution ride at Flamingoland. It is an excellent ride as it is manually controlled by the ride op, so if they feel evil you are in for one heck of a ride
Another one of these rides is Excalibur 2 at Camelot
Sorry to all you Maelstrom fans out there I only remembered about this ride after I had submitted the post and can't work out how to get it added to the list, so if any admin or mods can do then please feel free to do so. _________________

Had to go for Rush at Thorpe. Great ride, and the fact you feel so exposed with only a lap bar makes it more thrilling. Second place, any Booster, standard wind turbine thing. _________________ Don't look at me, I'm just Human
