So is there actually much that is new this year on the Midway? The only thing I have heard is Raupenbahn is in for the first time.

The Goldmine is the only other new attraction I can think of. I am surprised the Power Surge went to Perth instead of Melbourne as there is already one at Adventure World over there and the portable one did Perth last year.

am i wrong in saying that the Melb show has really turned to sh#t!! i mean long gone are the days of the turbo, 2 zippers and a whole bunch of other classics etc!! but this year is a disgrace!! i know the show stands for much more than its midway but this year is the smallest and worst show ever! thank god for No Limit! the only ride any balls at all (seemed to ride much harder this year)!! anyway im sorry if i offend anyone, just really disapointing considering the $27.00 to get in. lol ill shut up now

Dont be sorry avp, that is what everyone else has been saying, did you not try No Limit, a truly fantastic thrill ride, imo.

After last year, I made a decision to not go to the RMS this year...first time I would not go in 25years. Since I started seeing the ads around the place, I started to feel weak...the show is like a drug to me.....but given the comments here about this year, and the lack of horses, I have managed to keep myself away. I will probably return next year...if I don't go to the Ekka instead.

Ohh you missed out Huss, you should really ride, it is the best.

Any more excuses?
I didn't go to the show this year either, I was really dissapointed when I heard powersurge wasn't going.

There's nothing chicken about not riding No Limit. So long as you enjoy what you do ride and have a good time at the show, that's all that matters. I know people who are ride enthusiasts like me and who spend all day in the carnival area at the big shows but wouldn't consider riding anything if their lives depended on it. I was also like this; fascinated by the rides but too worried to ride anything. The only reason this changed was because I got a scholarship to do a Space Camp in the US and we had to ride all the scary simulators to complete the course. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified at first and overcoming the fear was a major achievement for me. Now I really enjoy riding thrill rides and family rides and also enjoy walking around a carnival, taking in the sounds and smells that make it such a unique experience.
