You definitely have quite a bit. Keep it up and your bicep will be higher than your shoulder blade.

I've always wanted to got to Cedar Point. But I know the feeling of being worn out, I've walked around in the Florida sun and heat from morning to almost midnight for a week straight, multiple times.

Steel Force at Dorney Park is very similar to Magnum XL 200 but it didn't feel rough at all to me, but it's not as old. I rode it last summer, it was at night and I couldn't see where it was going, kinda scary, but fun nonetheless. I think I got on every coaster there except the wild mouse (I hate those).

The smoothest rollercoaster I've ridden was Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure, it feels like you're riding on air. The roughest was Dragon Challenge (both coasters) at Universal Studios.

Overall I had a good time here. It was a shame the day I used the Fast Lane Plus at the park there was a t-storm.... The thunderstorm was not that great either. I loved the Top Thrill Dragster which felt like going through a wind tunnel when riding in the front. For those who don't know the Top Thrill Dragster was built in 2003 and launches from 0-120 mph/193 kph in 3.8 seconds. Its max height is 420 ft/130 m.

Steel Force and Magnum XL 200 are made by different companies (Morgan and Arrow) respectively.

I thought they were manufactured by the same company, both rides feature similar elements, height, speed, and trains. Arrow and Vekoma coasters are quite similar as well, I can never tell the difference, personally.

I could never go there without a fast pass. When I was there in June I went on 27 coasters and never waited more than 15-20 minutes. Too bad about the storm--It thundered immediately after I left and the night before but I had great weather when I was there.

I haven't been on the dragster since it's only a 15 second ride so I figured I'd wait for something longer. The millennium force and the maverick are my favorites.

That's completely ridiculous! French prices are pretty much as expensive as Swedish ones except for alcohol, but wages in Sweden are over 50% higher!!!

Well it wasn't that bad as me and my brother were a little worn out from the coaster riding. The lines weren't that bad. The longest wait I experienced the whole trip was for Valravn and it was less than 2 hours...

If not, please don't make fun of me. It was just a question
Your forearms look really good though. They seem to be the most muscular region in your body judging from that pic.
