On our trip to the CP today, we found out the hard way that slightly overweight people, and I don't mean people of size, I'm talking about people with a wasit size of 36 and higher were being told they could not ride M-Force, and other rides at the park. Even tho the seat belt connects and the lap bar comes down. If the ride op dose not see 1" of slack on the belt(not including the handle, aka, the red part on MF's seat belts), you may be asked to exit the ride.
I myself was not told to exit MF, but MJ had to. And those of you who know MJ, knows he's not that big of a person.
I think this new policy blows. If a person can latch the seat belt without forceing it, and the lap bar can come down far enough, that person should be able to ride. I can understand the whole safty issue behind it, but come on, this is abit extreme.

What do you guys think about this? I think we should make a bug fuss about it, we know the cedar point people check the sites around for complaints. Perhaps after readins tons of users complaining they'll decide to make a change.
