Beech Bend Park Bowling Green, Kentucky Rumble Fest 2006 May 28, 2006 Page Two
Next to the Kentucky Rumbler where the Looping Star used to sit is now an area filled with children's rides. I was thrilled to see a classic Mangels Whip there.
Unfortunately it is a Junior Whip or I'd go for a ride. These rides are so much fun there should be one at every park. Just look at the grin on that little girl. Whips are a blast.
The Looping Star reopened this year with not only a new location about a hundred feet from its previous one, but also a new sign and new trains.
Here's Kevin going for a ride on the Looping Star's new trains. They are a definite improvement over the previous trains but the roughness left me bruised.
