Coaster Redux
As a roller coaster enthusiast, one of my favorite parts of the hobby is getting the reaction of somebody coming off a ride they've never ridden before. That's what I want to share with you.

So, join me on this journey as tell my roller coaster story, from how I became an enthusiast to my thoughts on some of the most elite roller coasters at bucket list parks out there today.
