DL rides you've never ridden -- or only ridden once?

[beachdreamr1229]

I've been on everything at least once. But, for 1 and done:

At DCA, Flik's Flyers...only went one it once. Same thing with the ladybug thing in Bug Land. Goofy's Sky School, too. Went on it once and bruised my leg terribly.

At DL, I'm fairly certain I've done everything multiple times. The only thing I can think of that I might have only seen once is the old cartoons in the theater on Main St. That doesn't count as a ride though, right?

The carousels in both parks. Not going to waste our time on something that can be had at our local mall.

The canoes.

I haven't been on the Disneyland railroad since I was a kid.

My kid doesn't like the water rides, so that limits my chances on those, although I enjoy them. Same with Matterhorn...

Just once in the houses in toon town besides Mickey and Minnie.

I don't really get tiki room, but it's a nice place to relax, so I'm not sure if that counts.

In the ridden once/twice category:

Gadgets Go coaster- I'm just too dang tall for this ride, felt like I had to pretzel my legs to get in and out

Finding Nemo- too tight and claustrophobic feeling for me

Casey Junior- I don't like that caged-in feeling, ha!

Story Book Land Boats- just seems boring to me.

The NEVER ridden category:
The Monorail- yikes! I know. I think I used to think it was for hotel guests only.

The white boat, I'm embarrassed that I don't even know the name of it.

I've never done any of the trolleys or horse drawn trolleys.

I don't know how I've managed it, but I haven't been in Toon town - so haven't done Gadget or the Roger Spin one...both of which are on my next visit's checklist! Last time I was there I checked off Ariel's and It's Tough to be a Bug (which luckily I didn't have my kids for! Holy spiders batman!!) I also did the Castle Walk Through last time which I think my kids would really enjoy so I'll be taking them through that as well.

I love roller coaster and any kind of stomach dropping rides - I will ride Screamin' 5 times a day during my visits - but Star Tours gave me bad motion sickness. It didn't last all day or anything but during the ride I was queasy. I have no qualms in skipping that one for now on. And I know my kids love Autopia but I find painfully boring!!

Trying to figure out why this thread got moved into the Black Hole of the Disneyland Community Board.....where all threads (except for photo of the day) go to die.

Oddly enough, we've never been on the Mark Twain. At least at DL. We've done it at WDW. But at DL, it seems the few times we've gone to ride the boat, it was the Columbia. I'm not complaining - that's a fine ship to ride aboard. I just keep missing the Mark Twain. Hoping to maybe try it out this summer. But I'll probably just catch the Columbia again.

 

[LizzyS]

There are a handful of rides I am just not interested in, honestly. I would say that the little kid rides are the ones I've never been on, but I love all of the Fantasyland dark rides, so that kind of goes out the window, haha. I made it a point to do Storybookland Canal Boats on my very first visit.

I've only done IASW and RSR once each. IASW is cute, but it lasts too long! RSR is just a case of being able to ride it with a minimum wait/only having one day in the parks, etc. We were the very first car of the day when we rode it, though! We really liked it, in all honesty.

California Screamin' violates my one rule for rides (going upside down), so I will never ride that one.

 

[bcwife76]

In DCA I've never ridden California Screamin'.

In DL I've never ridden Splash Mtn or Dumbo.

 

[DDhunter]

I have ridden Finding Nemo one time. I did not care for the very small staircase down and the even smaller seats. I doubt I ever ride it again. Also, I live in Southern California so Autopia is of little interest to me, as I spend enough time in backed up stop and go traffic in the "real" world.

I had never ridden the tea cups until my last trip, since I tend to get dizzy on spinny rides. However, the tea cups didn't make me even the slightest bit dizzy and were actually a lot of fun. I did ride the swings over at DCA once. I could barely extricate myself and walk off the ride. My first step off almost brought me to my knees (embarrassing). I spent a couple hours dizzy and useless afterwards. That is a never again ride.

My husband and I have vowed to ride every ride and I think the only one we haven't yet is the ride right at the entry into Tomorrow land. Again with the spinning, ugh.

 

[EmmersIsTheMommy]

Never ridden:
Finding Nemo
Goofy's Sky School (I hate wild mouse rides)
Canoes
Astro


One and done:
RR (Ok I've done it twice but I knew I'd hate myself after the last one)
Teacups

Once, but will go again:
Storybook canal boats
Casey Jr

 

[superme80]

I have never done the Swings, Golden Zephyr, Jumpin Jelly Fish. I can't remember if I have ever been on the canoes. I am looking forward to the new Tower of Terror and Luigi's.

 

[emmybee]

I've never been to Tom Sawyer's island, so I guess I've missed the canoes and the raft? No Astro Orbiter. I've been on that roller coaster in Toon Town once, but maybe my kid will be more willing to ride it now. I have never been on those rides that are by Goofy's Sky School--that silver rocket thing, and the Silly Symphony Swings. I might have been on that whitewater raft once. I'm very finicky. It can't be too cold, and I better not be wearing jeans. The line is usually too long (does it have fast pass?), or it's broken.

 

[disneycat321]

Never:
Casey Jr, Gadget's Go Coaster, Jumpin' Jellyfish, all the Bugs Land rides - We don't have kids, so don't see the point of any of those for us. Also, the line for Gadget's Go Coaster is usually ridiculous for what it is.

Columbia - Not sure the reason for this, actually.

Luigi's Rollickin Roadsters - We've only been to DCA once since this opened, and the line was too long for us.

Once:
Snow White, Pinocchio, Golden Zephyr, Astro Orbiter - No reason, really. Just not high priority, I guess.

More than once, but probably never again...
Finding Nemo (SO claustrophobic for me), Mickey's Fun Wheel swinging gondolas - NOT a fan.

There are a few things that I have not been on. The one that sticks out the most is the Storybook Canal Boats. I have been multiple times since the 70s, and it's been there since the 50's, and I've never been on it.

 

[rowan1813]

Never:
Canoes - never had the time or inclination to get hot and sweaty
Mickey's Fun Wheel of Death - I have a huge fear of falling
CA Screamin' - again, huge fear of falling and I can't do looped coasters; did Indiana Jones in Paris and had severe vertigo issues after.


Once and never again:
Update Star Tours - I got such a huge headache and vertigo issues coming off of that ride after it went to 3D which is incredibly sad since I was a huge SW fan.
Tower of Terror - fits in with my HUGE fear of falling...

I must be a dork, because SCB was on my must-do list the first time I visited, lol. I think I really just wanted to go through Monstro's mouth.

Not a dork. SBC is a classic DL ride. We love it!

I am not sure how I managed to never ride it. I always loved the look of Monstro.

 

[LizzyS]

When I was a child, I thought whales were hollow inside because of Pinocchio, haha.
