History

We have travelled all around the world to ride roller coasters, including Europe, Japan, South Korea and North America

Ian's first trip to the States was in 1989 and Adrian's in 1995 with the Roller Coaster Club of Great Britain. Since then, we have visited the States 17 times, clocking up the air miles and seeking the best America has to offer. A brief interlude into storm chasing a couple of years ago took us to some states without roller coasters! and we can now boast that we have visited every state except 4.

The most times we visited the States in one year was 2004 when we clocked up 4 visits in all. Over the years we have watched the industry go from strength to strength, and also watched some much loved coasters disappear or their parks close, only for them to remain unloved.

Our trip history can be found on our main website, www.coasterz.co.uk here and the parks we have visited can be found here.

Ian's a bit of an adrenaline junkie, having done a tandem skydive from 12000 feet, and many bungee jumps. There is no thrill ride or coaster he won't try, and few he doesn't like.

Adrian has also done a solo parachute jump from 2500 feet and is happy with any ride or height, as long as he understands the safety systems first.

We are both in the 600+ club for number of coasters ridden, and have visited well over 100 parks.
