Somewhere between 60-90. I'd really have to sit down and count.

44 coasters (Low, I know), 35 steel, and 9 wood. Hopefully by the end of Spring Break it will be past 50!

I stopped keeping track years ago, bit I'd guess I'm around 170 or so. Between the US, Mexico and Europe.

I'm surprised how low some peoples coastercounts are. Mine is compared to the average user here pretty high: 887 different coasters at the moment. 105 wooden coasters and 782 steel. (Even my mom is way above the average with her 746 coasters. :lol: )
Coastercount: 1410 (I've seen the world and it's horrid contraptions... @.@)

Well when you don't have the money to travel to different parks, your count is like mine, only 30 :cry:

28, unless I missed at least one.
-I am counting kiddie coasters
-Racing/dueling coasters are counted twice if I've ridden both sides
-Carnival coasters are not counted since I don't keep track of them and it's possible I might have ridden the same particular copy at different carnivals or the same carnival a year later but a different copy,

I'm sat on 52 because my parents weren't really orientated that way (most of our holidays were in Devon) so its only now that I have some of my own money to spend (having been a student for 4 years) I can plan some trips outside of the UK!

I still imagine that most people would be somewhere around 50+. Especially if you look at the density of coasters in every decent sized American park.

Yea...I don't count.

I'm at the park to have fun and the last thing on my mind is counting rollercoaster rides.

After going to CP and KI, my coaster count is now up to 64. Still not that high, but it's better than the 37 it used to be.

Maybe this was a misunderstanding when you posted it in March, but you do know that we count "credits" or "number of distinct coasters ridden", correct? Counting cycles is insanity. Counting credits, on the other hand, would take like ten minutes or less after returning home from a park and noting down what different ones you rode. It's a nice track record of your coaster-riding journey, and I think it's simply loads of fun to rate and rank them all and compare their stats against one another and see trends in your enjoyment pattern. It's like people that go crazy about football stats except this is with roller coasters.

Anyway. Mine is 180 after my recent Carowinds visit, with Fury 325 being my 175th (intentionally). I'm extremely proud of and fortunate to have come this far. I still remember when it was a solid 15 to 20 or so because Cedar Point was my recurring home.

All it takes a little bit of planning and some money saved and you can get out to any nearby park! Even if things don't come about, it's still at least worth planning. It makes the concept of the trip more real.

According to my ride count app, I've been to Thorpe Park 4 times and Chessington three times (I started new a couple of weeks ago) and my count is up to 130.

My count will definitely be going up now, with a visit to Kings Island, SFNE, Carowinds, Dollywood, BGW, and Holiday World in store this summer with Blase!

My count is now up to 68 after my visit to Adventureland (Iowa). Unfortunately, I probably won't gain any more new credits until next summer.
