    I will go whos gonna organise? I reckon we could get it cheaper for a block booking. We can take a few cars rather than walk around all day in leathers.

    just go to burger king buy a meal and you get a half price voucher. 19 quid entry instead of 38 worth it, they even got touts on the gate selling the vouchers for a fiver or something.

    is that the american theme park thing??? i got some free tickets for there a few years ago, went on the bike with mrs on the back... we went on all the rides with lids on lol :D got some funny looks but at least we was dry on the whitewater rapids thing!
    beltin roads on the way there as well if u stay off the mway.

    Yeah they still got lockers, not sure full leathers would fit in there though as I couldnt see them. I asked them to put my phone on charge while I was there :shades:

    i went on the bike on monday... go to guest services, just down and to the the right when you go thru the main pay entrance... cost me 3 for 2 lids and a rucksack, which i thought was pretty reasonable.
    they're like pigeonhole boxes rather than swimming baths lockers, leathers & lid will fit np.

    had a good day out tbh, it was empty so no q's at all for the rides.
    only q was for the monorail to the exit!
    on nemesis my spycamera fell off and i caught it in mid air lol!
    unfortunately it didnt record a single clip, not even the twisties on the way back, gutted :/

    oh, another thing.... parking... i was told bikes still have to pay the fiver car park fee, but on the way out the guy just waved us through so up to you but next time i wouldn't bother paying it :thumbup:

    rita is a fast take-off lol, also liked nemesis :w00t: went on a few times seeing as there was no q
