Ride
The ride starts with the train being pulled backwards up the first lift via cable. At the top it is released where it then passes through the station at 48-mile-per-hour (77 km/h). It goes through three inversions then goes up a second chain lift. The train is released and travels the course in reverse.

Famous quotes containing the word ride:
“Not too many years ago, a child’s experience was limited by how far he or she could ride a bicycle or by the physical boundaries that parents set. Today ... the real boundaries of a child’s life are set more by the number of available cable channels and videotapes, by the simulated reality of videogames, by the number of megabytes of memory in the home computer. Now kids can go anywhere, as long as they stay inside the electronic bubble.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“Only the desert has a fascination—to ride alone—in the sun in the forever unpossessed country—away from man. That is a great temptation.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“To sum up:
1. The cosmos is a gigantic fly-wheel making 10,000 revolutions a minute.
2. Man is a sick fly taking a dizzy ride on it.
3. Religion is the theory that the wheel was designed and set spinning to give him the ride.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
