My Huge Trip Report Thread Continued....

[HitIn2000]

I like to travel to different carnival events, specifically in michigan, but also travel to other states as well,
my favorite show is wade shows inc of course, but I also visit with other companies as well. I had started
a thread for trip reports at canobie fan site but decided that in order for me to gain a wider audience I needed
to find a busier website, here is the link to the original thread. From now on I will mainly post updates here,
I may post some updates their as well, but it will be mostly here......

I found it pretty cool there was a Schwarzkopf double loop at the state fair in Florida at one time as recently as a couple years ago.

For content I believe you would start here now. I don't think we're here to be a link out to another site. Trip reports are by one thread at a time like for a week long vacation or a weekend. I don't think it can be a general thread here.

I like To Keep All My Stuff Together With Professionalism, Thank You For Commenting. Huge Lineup, My First Time At South Florida Fair, I Have Been Trying To Come To This Event For A Few Years, When I Found Out That I Can Come This Year, I Was Thrilled, I Have Never Seen Wade Shows In This Form Ever, With All Most Everything From All Three Unit's Plus Bookins, Huge Spot. Im Here Til The Event Ends.

I believe we have a coaster and rides database where you can click off what you've been on. Feel free to check it out. It's another aspect of our site.

I've dug the Strates shows coming to the next town over from me a decade ago. They used a siding in my town to unload the rides off a train. It was pretty cool to have a Topspin come on a train car and unload. That Topspin is my first or second favorite of all time for its manual mode.

Leo and all, the database is not yet capable of tracking portable carnival rides. It is a subject that will require much discussion before being implemented.

Did you go to a fair recently? Usually there is a description, a report of the day there, not just a list of rides.

[HitIn2000]

Im at the south florida fair. anyways I forgot to share my channel on youtube for video's of events between 2008 and 2011 that I have gone to,I have categorized my video's into playlists on my channel by year and event or show name, check out each category, thanks !!!!!

I saw a video for a Topspin looking ride on your channel. Do you narrate to the clips of your experience? I thought narration is part of the essence of a trip report. If you have enough content for a database you may want to develop your own site. There's a lot of covered rides.

I would enjoy getting more than just one report that shows up once a year here of the fairs being set up around Germany with the pics of the colorful flats. I welcome more fair coverage here but I hope conversation is part of it.
