Hello and welcome to part 5 of my French blog series! This is the final part where we head back to The UK and mop up some creds along the way, nothing compared what we rode in part 4 sadly! Let’s fly through them then!

Pegase Express 866: The first of the good creds here. This starts off well with some decent speed and drops. The second half isn’t as good and I was fully expecting a drop track which was actually a bit of effects and then a backwards section. Cetautomax 867: We had a couple of rides on this as it was really good! Easily one of the best spinning coasters I have done. ...
