I first rode The Beast at about 2 PM in the afternoon, and came off disappointed. The ride was long and fast, but the numerous brakes seemed to take away from it, and it was extremely rough, and I usually like my woodies rough, but this was too much. I also have a major complaint about the seat dividers in the cars, as I came off bruised from the one that comes up the middle of the seat back. These dividers are totally unnessicary.
So I bet you are wondering, if I had so many problems, why give it an 8. Well, I did my second circuit at about 9 at night. Right off the bat, the ride ops that night were on the ball. They were fast and efficant, and they were exciting, pumping up the riders.
And the ride, well lets just say it is something to behold when riden at night. I was fast, powerful, and the tunnels, well they are absolutely incredible at night. You sour through them in totally blackness, they are awsome. It seemed to be running fast them during the day as well. My suggestion, make this your last ride of the night, it is a ride you will neer forget.
