The Bizarro roller coaster at Six Flags New England, Agawam, Massachusetts

If you like plenty of airtime and a maddengly out of control ride then Bizarro is the ride for you.

I have to admit that I was not a fan of Bizarro the last time I visited Six Flags New England. The main reason I didn't care for it was that I had thighs that were bruised to hell from riding the Coney Island Cyclone and El Toro at Six Flags Great Adventure and that combined with the ride ops on Bizarro at that point ramming the lap bars into you with all of their force as a result Bizarro was extremely painful. Not being bruised this time the ejector seat airtime still hurts a bit but it was nowhere near as much.

The first half of Bizarro is an out and back with hills on the way out, this turnaround...

...and then some more hills on the way back.

Bizarro opened in 2000 as the big addition when Six Flags "flagged" Riverside Park a Six Flags park. It originally was Superman: Ride of Steel until 2009 when Six Flags renamed it Bizarro with some theming and on ride audio. If you are not a comic book geek Bizarro is a weird alternate universe version of Superman. I always thought it kind of weird that Six Flags renamed Superman: Ride of Steel after a character that most of the populace is clueless about.
