… but I’m even down for Mean Streak at Cedar Point if it is for a really good cause… let’s do it!

Well, I love my coasters. Millennium Force is definitely on the top of my list; when I lived in Michigan, I would drive down to Cedar Point on the weekends. Now, I am curious how their new ride, Gatekeeper, will be! I will admit that I have ridden Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia 35 consecutive times, and I only stopped because the special event was over… darn it. I plan to do my first marathon on June 7th at SFOG – this year, they are running the Mind Bender for 9 hours!

I would say something not too forcefull and with comfortable restraints, like a Morgan Hypercoaster such as Mamba or Wild Thing.

This sounds stupid for many, but Cyclone at SFNE.

It would probably be a choice between Nitro and Intimidator 305. Although my favorite coaster is El Toro, which I've ridden over 70 times, I don't know that I could do it for a marathon, as the airtime on the last drop is extremely intense. Nitro and Intimidator are both easy to ride, with Intimidator probably being a little easier because it doesn't have the helix.

I could go on 'Dominator' at Kings Dominion and 'Alpengeist' at Busch Gardens as many times as my body could stand; they are just great rides!

Honestly if I were to do a coaster marathon I'd ride "Mystery Mine" at Dollywood. The G-Forces arent too extreme and I just find it more fun each time! Not only that but its really smooth.

I'd have to agree with the CC. After finally getting to ride Apollo's Chariot (front seat no less), I can see why he rates the ride so highly. Smooth airtime machines are where it's at. Glad I finally have gotten around to experiencing multiple hypercoasters (Florida seriously needs one).

If I had to pick one from a Florida park, it would probably be Cheetah Hunt. Graceful definitely is a word that defines that coaster. I could ride it all day easily.

My favorite coaster is Top Thrill Dragster but I would ride my second favorite Millennium Force.
