Creeping up my 300th ROLLER COASTER RIDE OF THE SUMMER...Thought it would be fun to do it on the classic "LEAP THE DIPS" In Lakemont Park in Altoona, PA which is not close to anything?

Approx TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN MILES ONE WAY FOR ME!!!!

LEAP THE DIPS WAS NOT OPERATING YESTERDAY!

An angry mechanic told me, that "I wasn't missing anything that the ride was boring"

I know, that's the point.

When I asked him what was wrong with the ride?

He said it was RUNNING TOO FAST!!!!

Now that's funny. I think it has a top speed of 4MPH and must of gotten up to 5...

thank god Hershey Park is on my way home!!!

So glad they were working on the ride. Would hate for people to get too excited on a coaster
