Minnesota… one of the boringest places on earth. Luckily we were able to find Valleyfair! after 6 hours of driving from Milwaukee. Valleyfair was a nice little park with a awesome coaster in Renegade! Seriously this thing kicks ass. I was skeptical about the curved drop but it ended up being awesome! It has some really nice GCI air and it has a awesome layout. Its more of a mini Gravity Group coaster with Millennium Flyers. It was a little rougher then other GCIs I’ve been on but didn’t bother me much. Wild Thing was alright. If you like floater air this is definitely your ride cause it has a crap load of it. They had a decent collection of coasters and nothing really sucked. Anyways on to the photos.

Wild Thing is just gigantic.

Support Enthusiasts must love this ride.

Weird looking Morgan Hyper trains.

We naturally hit the Intamin right away figuring it’d break down sooner or later.

The holding break on this HURT. I don’t understand why you GAm people want it back on V2.

At this point I was screaming “TWISTY! THE RIDE IS TWISTY!”

This thing looked fun, painful, and wet.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/314.jpg
Wild Thing just towers over everything.

Typical Cedar Fair queue.

I promise this isn’t the last of the Wild Thing lift hill pics.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/317.jpg
This thing was plain awesome.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/318.jpg
Oddest flat ever. This thing just rocks back and forth like a swing!
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/320.jpg
What’s that in the distance?

I apologize for the lack of Renegade photos. Its impossible to get any shots of the first half of the ride.

Unfortunately this is my only photo of Excalibur. Pretty decent ride, the trims really save you. Its another hard to get photo.

Mad Mouse
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/330.jpg
This Arrow Mouse has some airtime.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/335.jpg
Probably my favorite mouse anywhere, but that’s not saying much.

Corkscrew, running one train…
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/341.jpg
Wasn’t as bad as I expected, definitely not worth the half a hour wait at all.

Corky drop
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/344.jpg
At Valleyfair (and some other CF parks I’ve been to) They have this mid day matinence check on the ride where they shut the ride down, thoroughly check the train, and do a few test runs. Well I’m sure %99.9999 of the time nothings ever wrong. Thanks for wasting 20 minutes of my Renegade time VF.

Walking in to the park I thought this was a bobsled! I was just a little off.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/346.jpg
Splash!

High Roller is just a awesome, old school, kick ass woodie.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/342.jpg
I see you.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/343.jpg
Airtime!
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/354.jpg
I don’t know if this thing was rough or not because the cars were just so damn comfortable! I could fall asleep in those.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/353.jpg
Just a awesome ride.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/338.jpg
Why hello there.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/348.jpg
This thing is TALL. Anyone know how tall?
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/351.jpg
Upskirt shot :)
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/367.jpg
You can go up, or down. (Up is better!)
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/366.jpg
Just plain fun, a drop tower done right!

This thing sat closed… all… day… long…
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/363.jpg
Didn’t ride this cause it looked plain painful.
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/360.jpg
Back to Renegade!
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/362.jpg
Wee!

Ready to go!

Final airtime hop!

Thanks for having us!

Bye Valleyfair, thanks for the GCI and credits.

It was MOA time! :)
http://i738.photobucket.com/albums/xx27/colebrown/Valleyfair/381.jpg
At this point, my camera ran out of battery, so I apologize for any people anxious for MOA photos.
At MOA we basically rode Spongebob and Avatar a bunch of times, took a spin on the new Brain Surge ride (which is awesome!), then left.
Thanks for Reading.
