Here's Bond after conquering the Mad Mouse.  Oh, beware the Wild Mouse's ending because it's a bunch of swift drops followed by hills and more swift drops that send your rear flying up right before it kicks it when you slam down on it.



Another classic coaster type that Bond hadn't experienced before our trip to Little Amerricka is a Toboggan coaster like this one made by Chance Rides.  These coasters are legendary in that they have the most claustrophobic and painful coaster cars ever and in addition to that the layout spins you around until you want to puke then they snap your neck.

Actually you used to see these all around in the 1970's when I was a kid.  They were pretty popular with travelling carnivals back then and I used to see these at fairgrounds and grocery store parking lots for years.  These days there are just a handful of them left at parks like Little Amerricka.



For the parents out there forget sending your kids into time out.  Just put them on the Toboggan.  I mean just look at these cars.  Five minutes sitting in one of these cars just sitting still will have them cleaning their rooms without any attitude. 



"No Mommy I'm sorry I set the laundry room on fire playing with matches.  Please don't make me ride the Toboggan.  I'll be good I promise!"
