End of Coaster Summer
Two weekends ago we went to Thorpe Park in Surrey, and last weekend we went to Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Both were excellent days out, but Thorpe Parks rides (the nemesis and colosus (pictured) in particular were better. The Pepsi Max Big One, while a formiable coaster, failed to give any real feeling of weighlessness, and we fel that the first drop is compromised by the twist to the right.
