Fun question! It's just like your own roller coaster but without the rails. Thanks to the suspension systems on these babies, plus the fact that you're destined to run cross country, the bobbing and tilting is great. You'll get to know all the sounds: clinking of tracks, engine, the cuss of your fellow occupants as you hit a bump and they drop something into an inaccessible corner of the vehicle. Davis668 is right though, inclement weather sucks. All in all it's a very cool ride. Like bikes are to little kids... in their own heads they're flying.

Comment The Simpsons Did It (Score 1) 430

THE SIMPSONS: This reminds me of when Springfield's nuclear power plant became too expensive to run, (due to wages, health care benefits, etc), so Mr. Burns outsourced the town's electricity to a low wage plant in India. Homer was sent to manage the staff there and was surprised there were no safety measures, no break rooms, no benefits... so he implemented them all even including child care! You know what happened, the staff there grew used to the good life & became more demanding and expensive so... Mr. Burns restarted the local Springfield power plant because it was cheaper HaaHaaa!
