What's new

Not many I don't think, only Saw this year so far. SW6 will be next year though, and hopefully more. Counting relocated probably will get the family vekoma for SFMM next year.

2007-Nitro
2008-Cyclone (Astroland)
2009-Batman: The Ride (GADV)

2005 is when I started keeping track of how many coasters I've ridden also how many times I've ridden a coaster. Since April of 2005 I rode a roller coaster in general 2067 times! I am 100% accurate. Everytime I get of a coaster I type it under notes in my phone the name of the ride & how many times I rode that ride that day. Then I write it down in a binder that has all the theme parks I've visited & all the coasters I rode & how many times a year I ride a coaster!
 
bizarro SFGA (doesn't really count because it just got special effects and got repainted, but it makes me feel better that i rode it. :oops:

dark knight coaster SFGA sorriest excuse of a coaster i've ever seen.
