Ok ok ok... I am registered. Canada better not bail on me! I need a hardcore riding partner in the back seat all the way to the end of ERT!

I want to get there at opening. Ken you want me to pick you up early in the morning? Who has accommodations for saturday night? Not sure I want to drive all the way home that night.

I'd like to get to Compounce earlier than I believe the soccer dad is planning to get there.
We can meet somewhere along the way and I'll ride back part of the way with Wade.
I'll work out details with you and Wade.

I can meet you at the Pallisades mall. You could leave your car there.

Me Bail? laughable!

Soooo LC is so small that meeting up will happen naturally?

Who's going to be down for water rides?

Who's doing Quassy?

Who else wants a Boston Cream?

AV Matt · « **Reply #79 on:** September 07, 2011, 09:04:45 AM »

Water rides are good. I'm in for Ted's and Quassy. Send me a message at the park (email, facebook, PM here, text, call...). I'll have my smart phone handy.

Otherwise, meet at boulder dash at 10am? I have everyone else's numbers so find AV Matt and you've found everyone.

Ogolo · « **Reply #80 on:** September 07, 2011, 12:06:49 PM »

Looks like they open at 11AM? Registration starts at 10:30ish.
(I thought it was earlier so an extra hour of sleep!)
The Start of ERT usually takes a while to start as they usually put on the second train.
Obviously you want the one that was running all day!

AV Matt · « **Reply #81 on:** September 07, 2011, 01:03:51 PM »

It's been a couple of years since I've gone to this event. Is there a lunch? Any idea what the itinerary is so we can plan our Ted's/Quassy outing?

dkny6363 · « **Reply #82 on:** September 07, 2011, 05:22:28 PM »

To me the outing would take about 3 hrs. 1:30 or whenever hunger sets in seems about right.

AV Matt · « **Reply #83 on:** September 07, 2011, 06:41:04 PM »

I seem to recall there being some kind of group lunch/prize giveaway session where they put us up in a room above the ballroom. I guess we can figure it out on the day of. Let's just make sure we all meet up by noon at Boulder Dash.

Ogolo · « **Reply #84 on:** September 08, 2011, 05:44:56 AM »

They don't have a lunch session anymore. But they do have a session in the late afternoon for the group picture and door prizes.

Wooden Warrior + Steamed Cheeseburgers trumps group photo + door prizes

You will miss the special award being given to the first person to attend Oc-Boulder-Fest from Canada!
I believe there will be time for both...depending on how many of those Steamed Cheeseburgers you wish to eat.

AV Matt · « **Reply #88 on:** September 09, 2011, 01:12:16 PM »

One steamed cheeseburger with extra cheese is plenty. You may wish to try the home fries as well though. Should we go to the original Ted's (for charm) or the new Ted's (for free refills on soda)? Same great food at both.

Ogolo · « **Reply #89 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:02:49 PM »

I think I'll be skipping this one.
Ted's + Amusement Park doesn't sound like it will end up good.

AV Matt · « **Reply #90 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:17:56 PM »

I can take five peeps in my truck (counting me).

I call dibs on Canada's first Boulder Dash ride! We have to make sure we meet up first thing in the morning!

Bubba Z · « **Reply #91 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:36:58 PM »

Ken, you need one of these. After the drive back you will be fine!

AV Matt · « **Reply #92 on:** September 09, 2011, 05:48:13 PM »

So yummy!

ChuckR · « **Reply #93 on:** September 10, 2011, 10:17:45 AM »

I want a steamed cheeseburger!

Ogolo · « **Reply #94 on:** September 11, 2011, 11:00:45 AM »

Boulder Dash was kicking *I like puppys* last night!
Still one of my favorites...Steamed cheeseburgers not so much.

It was great to gang out with everyone.
Next trip is up to Canada!

Edwardo · « **Reply #95 on:** September 11, 2011, 08:38:55 PM »

I wish I could have gone. Especially for the burgers.

Nice lol

Sorry I bailed early. Waking up @ 6:30am, working all morning, driving straight through to rides and knowing I had to get up @ 6:30 the next day kinda made me exhausted. Even worse is that I have a 6:30am flight today and had to get up @ 4am lol. Good time though. I actually enjoyed Boulder Dash more than Voyage last year. It was just as insane but re-ridable.

Awesome getting to chat more as well.

How was SFNE (minus the parking)?

B-mac · « **Reply #98 on:** September 12, 2011, 07:10:18 AM »

Probably typical of most Six Flags parks. Outside the parking...

dkny6363 · « **Reply #99 on:** September 12, 2011, 12:18:03 PM »

Wasn`t into SFNE... Think I was a little coastered out by Sunday. We got there are 11, and were gone by 2:30. We rode Bizzaro, Batman, the new mouse, Cyclone, Thunderbolt, Pandemonium, and the fly swater. I wanted to get a second ride on Bizzaro but it didn`t happen. It pretty much felt like a credit chasing day. Not too fun. I would go back... but I wouldn`t rush. Being down the road from Boulder Dash doesn`t hurt it`s cause.
