Single walk and 666

Today I measured how long a walk in the single rider line. I counted 380 strides. Each of my strides is 3 feet. 380 times 3 is 1140. Plus 38 stairs which I will count as half a foot a stair. So, 1140 plus 19 is 1159 feet per single rider loop. From the start of line and back to the start of line after a ride. Being conservative, 5 rides would be a little more than a mile. I've been on 666 times so far. About 133 miles walked so far this year.
This is ride 666. Not only did I lose the race but lost my right hand and part of my left :)

Rock my Disney Side

Today was a great day at Radiator Springs Racers. Got to California Adventure at 3am to line up for the 24 hour event. The park opened at 6am. Racers did not open until 8am. I've been on 23 times so far today. I also went past 1,000 rides since the attraction opened almost 2 years ago. I'm currently at 641 rides this year. The ride will be open until 4am. Let's see how many more times I can ride:)
This was ride 1,000

600 rides


Today, I got to 600 rides on Radiator Springs Racers. It took 20 days to go from 500 to 600. My friend Mike Garcia was in the same car for my 600. He's in the backseat with the sunglasses.
This is my notebook tracking my rides. As you can see, we lost the race. I won on my 100, 200, 300 and 500. Lost at 400 and 600. 
We'll see how long it takes to go from 600 to 700. Going to the 24 hour event this Friday. Wish me luck

Racers update 5/12/14

Today was a fun time at Radiator Springs Racers. The crowd was not very big. Got a lot of smiles and chit chats from the pit crew. They called me by my first name all the time. Sat in the front row a bunch of times today. Thanks to the "Groupers".at this posting, ridden 17 times so far today. Now at 564 for the year.
This photo is where you load and unload the cars. Photo below is a landscape of the racers mountain range.

Racers today

Today is packed. Is it because of Cinco de Meyo, Revenge of the 5th, or too many Fastpass given out. I think a combination of all 3. I'll be lucky to get on 10 times today:-)
