I always go for super crappy or kiddie coasters for milestones:

 

25:Psyclone (SFMM)

50: Wildcat (some sketchy fair in South Central LA)

75: Shockwave (King's Dominion)

100: Flying Coaster (Elich Gardens)

125: Shamu Express (Sea World Florida, rode it opening day!)

150: Howler (Holiday World)

I love how your #100 was Flying Coaster That just struck me as REALLY funny for some reason.

Hit my 100th yesterday: Phoenix (Knoebels) !

 

Technically, Twister was 100 because I forgot to add Rock'n Roller Coaster to my count, but since I added Phoenix and Twister first, I still say Phoenix is my #100.

I can't really remember what number 1 was as it was so long ago now - it would have to be something at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast I reckon - maybe Thunderbolt?

 

50 = Atlantis Adventure at Lotte World in Seoul, South Korea (very cool ride)

100 = Spinning Coaster at Yokohama Cosmoworld, Yokohama, Japan

My first coaster (of memory) was the Matterhorn at Disneyland. However, my mom says that I rode the Sea Serpent out at Pacific Ocean Park before that, but I don't remember it at all, and I think I'd remember riding a "big" wooden coaster out next to the ocean.

 

Kristen has almost as many credits as I do---I'm still in the double digits, which is shameful for someone who's been around as long as I have.

#100 - Intimidator 305

 

Last coaster: #116 - Go Bananas! at Wild Adventures, Valdosta, GA

 

#'s 117-135 will be coming soon with my first-ever visits to Carowinds and Kings Island over the next three days!

I do now know that order of that coaster that I have ridden, but in August of 2010, I rode Cannonball Run at Waterville USA and I took some POV video of it. I thought that you guys might like it.

 

 

I think my first coaster might have been The Viper at Astroworld (RIP) a LONG time ago!

Ha! That was you in the El Toro shirt. I was at Lakemont that day, as well. You weren't also at Waldameer later that day by any chance, were you? I swear we saw you again at Waldameer, unless it was someone else that resembled you and had the same exact shirt on. Congrats on 300!

#1 was Boomerang at Bellewaerde.

#100 was Pepsi Max Big One at Blackpool pleasure Beach

#200 was Rebel Yell at Kings Dominion
