anonymouscactus 26 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Absolutely love that shot of Windseeker at night!Tasting event looks fun, I've always like their brew and bbq, etc. offerings and agree they should do it every year.As much as I love the atmosphere I couldn't imagine going to CP and not do any rides. To each their own! I can also understand not wanting to wait in those lines I've read about... wowzas.Thanks for sharing! Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for sharing! Thank you!  The event was awesome! Their brews and bbq event is great event also. It was hard to get on rides, but i didnt feel like doing the walk of shame. Goal is to lose some weight so i can get back to riding! Link to post Share on other sites

Pedrinho 4 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Thanks so much for these pics. I miss Cedar Point so much. I would never have thought that Cedar Point will be so far away for us one day. Link to post Share on other sites

tndank 16 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Those wooden cutout trains are sweet. I ordered a couple.  Link to post Share on other sites
dankeykang 16 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Yeah those do look pretty cool. I would guess that the Steel Vengeance models will all be Blackjack, but it would be cool if they did some Digger and Chess as well.  Link to post Share on other sites
Pedrinho 4 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Those are awesome! But 200 bucks for the train plus shipping to Germany? Whoa. Link to post Share on other sites

The wind restrictions here are nuts, I expected a few rides, not all of them to close, haha. Link to post Share on other sites
oriolat 4 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I mean, Pipe Scream is just a Disk'o'Coaster, and it runs on a powered track. Why close it? Most Zamperla rides have a standard 30 mph wind limitation but that one is not even that tall... Â Link to post Share on other sites

southpuddle 10 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 If Cedar Point had even the same rain/wind policy as the other Ohio CF park, let alone just about any other park in the nation, they’d be the best park in the country bar none.  It as it stands, I’d never even consider going here if there was any sort of wind or rain in the forecast. Link to post Share on other sites

Mike240SX 66 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 If it makes you feel better, the B&Ms at Kings Island closed mid-day due to temperature and didn't reopen. Beast was posting a 3 hour wait on the app. Link to post Share on other sites
FeelTheFORCE 2 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'm hoping they will still offer their usual black friday ticket & fast lane+ deal this year. Having that this past summer was a lifesaver. Link to post Share on other sites

Fortunately we got to do a good bit Saturday night which made up for the almost non existent coaster line up today.  I was honestly surprised since almost all of the coasters were fully staffed the entire time, but even the ride ops said even though things could change. It’s likely a wash for the day for any of the major coasters. They worked early on in the day getting Maverick open, but after 20 minute of testing had to close again due to wind.  After a very cold, windy and at times snowy day. Still had fun and I definitely understand why the park really can’t do a winter or holiday event. Hopefully they lax up a bit on the restrictions for the rides/coasters that don’t have wind/temp issues. Link to post Share on other sites
dankeykang 16 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 That's typical Ohio weather for you... where one weekend it'll be snowing and the next weekend it'll be beautiful and approaching 70° Link to post Share on other sites
