Sandusky, Ohio
Alrighty now, someone help me out. Just get from Disney this past week and I begin speaking with a relative, my cousin Mark, that says the only thing ol' DW lacks is real adult rides. You know, roller coasters, screaming speed rides, etc. So I start to ramble on about Universal City, also located in Orlando just across the city.
Mark, says not so fast my dear cuz, my sources tell me the place to go for all the thrill rides is Sandusky, Ohio. Sandusky is the home of CedarPoint Park and it is known as the roller coaster capital of the US. They currently have 16 roller coasters and other hair raising rides. I reply, never heard of it.
So do tell my OH.com friends, is cousin Mark's contact correct? Is Sandusky, OH the place to go to find hair scorching, fast as lightening, pulling more g(s) than an astronaut at NASA type of rides.
Come on now, those that are in the know, please advise....

Oh, not knocking Disney at all, had a blast. But ready to move on to the greased lightening stuff. I have always loved roller coasters, even as a small child. I used to cry when I was too short to ride the big boy rides at Six Flags over Texas.
I love the Titan, Texas Giant, Batman, Mr. Freeze, Runaway Mine Train, the Shockwave, Cliff Hanger, The Judge Roy Scream and anything else that makes most black out. Cathy loves these rides as well. And now since GBS we both can fit. Awesome Baby!
When I was a very young kid, us boys used to take a young sapling tree and bend it to the ground and have one of us hop on. Then release and it would throw you or beat the heck out of ya. I always wanted to be the one that hopped on.
At 6 years of age I used to get on top of my Grandpa's cinder block fence and grab a handful of wheeping willow vines and swing way out in the air and jump for the peach tree.
As a teenager, I use to skip school to go out to Rural Blake's place to dive off a 30 ft. cliff into the pond below.
Cedar Point, looking at their website it definitely looks like fun.
