Ride the Five

We're going this weekend, and I was excited for this until I saw that we have to ride all 5 twice in 60 minutes...is that even possible or is it a way to get people to buy QQ? I am still looking forward to everything else though.

One ride on each would be pretty tough. Two seems impossible.
Especially considering the amount of time pantheon spends closed…
That is basically impossible even with walk ons on every ride and perfect ride ops which we all know will never happen. This just shows how out of touch BGW marketing is with the park. So 10 coasters in 60 minutes?
Seems like a stealthy marketing push for fast pass.
I'm guessing there's going to be one sneaky person who unlocks the cheat codes needed to win the challenge...
Even using QQ I dont think its possible. In fact even if you got to stay on each coaster for the second ride I dont think its possible. Ride opps alone will kill this challenge.
Unless the park encourages them to push QQ to get people to see that’s the way to get the challenge done.
Just the fact of all 5 coasters being open will be the biggest challenge.
Agreed. From the sounds of it they better make sure it’s all hands on deck for this.
I probably could have, but with this "event" on? Or even now in general? Including walking?
I'm disappointed if I can't get an average of 5 rides an hour, but that's doing some reriding and I'm not speedwalking halfway around the park only to have to go back and get the rest of my rides.

And.......Busch has already changed the rules. Only one ride on each coaster in 60 minutes. Just shows they never put any thought into this until its guests put in the effort to show it wouldnt work.
I'm one who always looks for the silver lining in a situation. This at minimum, shows they're paying attention to what everyone is saying. In all reality, whomever thought this could have been accomplished in 60 minutes is out of their mind.
For posterity sake - here's a couple snips of the ride twice vs. ride once.

I’m still not sure it’s possible given current park operations…..but we will see Thursday.
@WDWRLD I'll be there on Thursday making a run at it too! Thankfully Griffon, Invadr, and Alpie aren't very far apart.
