Tumble Bug!!!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZyEgcgk7f0

Did you know Conneaut Lake Park possesses one of only two operational Tumble Bug rides in the US of A?  It's a rollicking, tumbly coaster-type of a ride.  Chances are you've never experienced it, as it's so very rare, so here's a recent video of the vintage ride in all it's upsy-downsy glory!

Ben and I rode it in early June of this year and it's officially in my list of Top 10 Best Vintage Rides for my book.  What makes it so very special, aside from it's rarity, is that it's a great option for those of us who intrinsically love coasters but, for a variety of reasons, may not be up to riding them anymore.

Tumble on, Bug.  Tumble on...
