Johnny Upsidedown Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Hi gang. Well, I was out at Beech Bend in Bowling Green Ky. for the Kentucky Rumbler Media Day event. Around 100 enthusisast from DAFA, ACE and the RCCGB arrived for rides on the new Rumbler. Short write up as I am still working on more photos and my write up from the event. Anyway I have a bunch of photos of the Rumbler up on my site www.Johnnyupsidedown.com. Or go straight to the photos here http://www.johnnyupsidedown.com/new2006r1.html More photos later as I also have photos of all the people and other rides at the park and my write up of the event which I will have up later. So for now the main photos of the Rumbler are up on my site and more later. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Nice pics once again, Johnny! I see they must've been encouraging on-ride photography for the day, huh? Seems like everyone and their mother had some kind of camera while riding. And btw, how do you think it stacks up against Thunderhead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USRoadTripper Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I liked it a LOT better than Thunderhead, but then I found Thunderhead very "blah." I'll be posting my TR later tonight. -Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Upsidedown Posted May 6, 2006 Author Share Posted May 6, 2006 Thanks BEEMER Hey Julie got some photos for you. Well as for the ride experience. I would say that the Rumbler is a nice cross between the Ozark Wildcat at Celebration in Branson and Thunderhead. The ride is relentless just like Thunderhead is but has a very similar layout to the Ozark Wildcat. I love the MF trains that GCII uses. Otherwise Rumbler is very wild and for me ranks higher up on my ride list because of its midsize. I prefer steel rides as I dont care much for wood but will ride um. For a good midsized woody that dont beat you up and has some good air and lotsof quick change of pace. I think Beech Bend has a winner on there hands. Okay more photos are up on my site and a small write up of the days activities. Photos of people at the event the ribbin cutting and photos of some of the other rides at the park. Plus there are a couple photos of Dragon coaster stalled on the tracks and some photos of park emplyees giving it a push. Anyway to see more photos from the event go here http://www.johnnyupsidedown.com/eventBB2.html Enjoy . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
