Hey steve07 & speederbrad95, it's good to see enthusiasm in your topic thread and consistent contribution to the AAF but this is a forum not a chat room. I got lost reading half the posts in here. After filtering through I still have no idea what will be at Gympie's Show. Can you please keep your info concise, clear and to the point. a lot of questions you seem to be asking info on have already been covered in other threads. Do a word search to see if it has been covered before you ask the question to other members and use the forum as a knowledge source and information bank.

Look forward to you keeping us all updated. Do you have any setup photos you can share?

Cheers
Force

The wheel was counted as a kiddies ride ''mini ferris wheel'' really small children can ride it, you have to be under a certain weight and height.

Thanks for sharing. There seemed to be no double ups. Is that March's Whizzer in the pic? It's really changed since I last seen it. Love regiomal shows there is always so many food joints!

i dont actually know who owns that, when i saw it i was really surprised of see the whizzer there, it looks like a different owner to that ride, march's gear werent there, the only one ride i saw was the slide that march's owned, but yeah it looks really good, the colours on it so look good, it looked like they had a complete make over of that ride....?? yeah... food joints are very common here at gympie, they are all over the showground, so you wont go hungry here... lol.. :)

It's one of the rides on my bucket list. I'll be lucky enough to ever see one again because there's no way known that it will return to Rye or the Melbourne Show or Moomba :x
