Dear Mother & Dad,
Still having a wonderful time. Am awfully not though. I rode on this ride at Coney Island the day I told you we went over there. It was really a thrill. How is everything back home?
Love, Jane
Well Jane,
I took a ride on the CYCLONE back in 1977 I think it was. I was young and stupid! It was a thrill alright. Very frightening. A really rough ride and no safety features except a loose bar in front of me to hold onto for dear life. I must say though I will never forget it and am glad I did it. Does anyone know if it is still around?
Scared stiff,
Michael
