Thanx 4 sharin those Kiwi. Were those the only rides there-hurricane, round up, roc n roll, gravitron and supaloop? Looked like a great day there too. Do u think mahons will be getting any new rides soon?

I saw the superloop running on Australian tv, when an interview was being done in a studio with the ride running in the background.

Looks like a great day of full ride cycles.

Oh how I wish our Super Loop was still travelling. I wonder whether it'll be in Canberra for the Show like it usually is?

Pavier's usually do the Sydney BDO and perhaps Speed may be there this year as it didn't go to Luna Park. I heard it was wowing the crouds in Gosford over Christmas or just before.

Mahons

Yeah those were the only rides, they are run free so the organisers choose what they want.

I believe Mahons are looking at some family stuff, otherwsise a few projects on there current gear
