Ride the Cyclone!
Sep. 7th, 2008 03:03 pmWith Astroland closing today, it was quite fortunate that I had already planned to be at Cony Island on Friday. It was part of a “mandatory fun” event that work does every summer.
A few months ago I decided that I had to get over my fear of roller-coasters. So, I road The Cyclone.
cartographer found a YouTube video of the ride, which pretty much captures it:
Sadly, Coney Island is fairly dilapidated now. Such a shame. 50 years ago it was “the place to be”.
