The Bleeder

Starting from the top of effigy hill, right next to the Effigy Bar, The Bleeder is a hellraising,
hair‐curling slide of death encompassing nearly 100 yards of bumps, banked
turns and sheer straightaway downhills. Those with the bravery to attempt it and
the skills to finish will find themselves at the bottom of the hill, cheered across the
finish line by a powerful air horn that can be heard all across the burn.

The Bleeder is a team designed and built roller coaster composed of 2 foot wide
“track” constructed with a 1/2” OSB surface. There are 240 linear feet of track
straightaways accounted for in the budget. In addition to the thrills that the hill
topography will provide, there are four constructed 3‐foot tall by 5‐foot long
“bumps” and four steeply‐banked turns, allowing the track to snake down the hill.

Budget summary (see proposal for details):

  • 240 linear feet of straightaway track:  $285.00
  • 4 complete bumps:  $166.00
  • 4 banked turns:  $125.50
  • 2 six-wheeled Carts:  $67.00
  • Miscellanous fun stuff: $186.63

Total: $830.13
