The Raptor Roller Coaster at Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

Cedar Point certainly needed the added capacity with three trains as even now some twenty-nine years later it is still as popular as it was when it opened in 1994.

With Raptor literally a few steps from Cedar Point's entrance it is often the first coaster than many visitors stop at which makes getting multiple rides a little hard.  All throughout my visit the shortest Raptor's line got was fifty minutes.

After a full day of walking on by I finally joined up Raptor's massive queue on the second day of my visit.  Thankfully it gave as an amazing ride as I had remembered.

Despite taller, longer and faster inverted coasters out there Raptor is still one of the best.  I think on my next visit I need to just budget for a Fast Lane pass so I can skip the line and really enjoy Raptor more.

That is the end of my visit to Cedar Point.  With eleven years since my last visit one thing I am certain of as I walked past Raptor's lift hill and under Gatekeeper's pair of inversions over the exit to Cedar Point was that I really don't want to ever wait that long before visiting again.

Now  it is time to start planning a 2024 or a 2025 visit to Cedar Point.  Next time I need to bring Bond along for the ride.
