The Dragonflyer Rollercoaster at Dollywood Theme Park, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Dragonflyer is a family inverted coaster by Vekoma.

While I haven't always been the biggest fan of some of Vekoma's rides, I really like how they have always had a focus on creating great family coasters. Family coasters like the Hollyhock & Roll at Kentucky Kingdom have always been a joy to ride. What is nice is when most coaster designers were focused on thrills and loops with their inverted coasters Vekoma also was creating fun inverted coasters without inversions that anyone from the smallest, to the biggest coaster rides can enjoy. With Dollywood's focus always being on creating experiences for the whole family, Dragonflyer is a perfect fit for the park.

The Black Bear Trail at Dollywood Theme Park, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Do you remember those coin operated horses for kids to ride on that you used to find outside of grocery stores or in a mall?

The Black Bear Trail has taken that quarter powered ride experience from our youth, added a track to it, and ended up with a stupidly fun ride as you can see on the massive grin that is on Bond's face.

Black Bear Trail might be geared for kids but what adult doesn't see one of those coin operated horses and not want to put a few quarters in the machine to go for a ride?
