Do you go on all the rides when you visit or just the main rides and leave all the kids rides alone?
Transgender and proud :D

I always go with my family so I go on both kids and big rollercoasters. We do the kids one first and then me and my dad go off and go on the the rollercoasters.

These are the rides I usually go on:
  • Nemesis
  • Air
  • Oblivion
  • Rita
  • Thirteen
  • Ripsaw
  • Blade
  • Submission
  • Enterprise
  • Nemesis: Sub-Terra
  • SW7 - when it comes out.
  • Ice Age - The 4-D Experience
  • Twirling Toadstool - sometimes depending on who I'm with.
  • Sonic Spinball
  • Runaway Mine Train
  • Duel
  • The Flume
  • Congo River Rapids
  • Sea Life Aquarium
  • Heave Ho - I went on it once cause I was bored and waiting for my mum to by something.
Probably some other but I can't remember, usually I just go with my dad but sometimes I go with all my family and sometimes with my mates. I mainly just go on the Thrill Rides and Laughs and Frights rides but there are some Young Fun rides I'm sure I've been on.

I am a Primary School kid but I do go on all the major rides and water rides and maybe ice age but not the kiddie rides. When I went to AT Rita broke down, so i couldnt ride it.

EDIT: Ye nicked me username? Only joking LOL.
Being number two is just being the first to lose.

Yes - I go on as much as I can.

AT is a 5 hour drive for me so it's not somewhere I go more than once a year.

I make the main/new rides a priority and then go on to smaller rides.

We have Merlin passes and visit pretty often, so just go on whatever we fancy and haven't got long queues.

We don't normally bother with X-Sector as none of us are Oblivion fans (sorry, but it is dull  :|), but I'm sure that will change this year  :D

I always have to do Nemesis at least twice each trip tho. I have a competition going with the others to see how many times I can get on whilst they're in the Q for Air. 6 times is my record so far!
Nemesis makes me Smile
