"Convince me that pineapple belongs on pizza! I'll fall for you if you trip me! I go crazy for a mullet-" You bolt awake in the mountains of Carthage. It is 217 BC. You are the general Hannibal, and you have changed your mind. The future cannot come to pass. Rome must burn.

Kingda Ka closing this year has got me thinking about which of my bucket list rides are approaching extinction. For me: Gold Striker is a priority since CGA's time is running out. Equally, I love an invert, and classics like Montu are getting on a bit... How about you?

My favourite thing about Hadestown is that Hell itself is implied to have a more progressive transport policy than most of the USA (they actually built a working railway)

OK chat, how likely do we think it is that both the Mack Big Dipper at Wiener Prater AND the Mack Stryker at Fantasiana will be open by April 2025? Running out of inspiration for a potential Easter trip 😅

This thing looks genuinely fantastic - new Vekoma have been making some real hits, and this might well be their opus. Might have to add Mexico to the bucket list...

Travelling by train a lot with work at the moment. I always try to do something useful with the time, but the WiFi is much too poor to do anything. How can subways in Japan and China have perfect phone signal, yet I can barely ever hold a call on a UK train?
