Nemesis: The 20 Year Old Beast

After my weekend at Towers I thought I'd explain why Nemesis is my favourite.
Even before this point you can hear it roaring around its twisted layout which can be quite intimidating. It is the roar of a monster! An untamed alien that wants to escape!
The British weather was brilliant to help set the scene! But you can stand directly under element of Nemesis with no netting ruining your photos.
Unlike Smiler
Without the netting these photos would have been half decent!
Nemesis is full of force! It's relentless!
This is one drop. All be it forceful but not anything significant. The only bonus about Oblivion is the long ride time you get due to the stacking.
Nemesis may be a mix of a few colours but it looks good for the ride theme.
Due to height, the black sections on this look stupid.
Nemesis has never been rethemed.
This has (although I do really like Duel).
Some say it's rough, no just intense.
This was rough.
It has a cooler station.
This makes you look at blue lit concrete.
It's not trimmed.
Th13teen is.
It's never caught on fire.
The Skyride has.
It's fun all the time!
The Flume isn't.
And it's 100% photogenic!
Okay so maybe I've been a bit harsh on the other rides, but for me Nemesis is best! Some of you probably think I'm a sheep and just follow the herd of people who love it. No. My first experience of Nemesis was when I'd just hit 1.4. Never been to Alton Towers before hand and we went on the Monorail to the entrance. With our AP we went to Forbidden Valley for ERT and I heard the roar! No idea what it was until I saw it. And there it was, Nemesis! I remember my first ride and after many years it's still never disappointed! Sure it's not the fastest, or the biggest, but for me it holds a special place in my heart and has never let me down. I appreciate everyone is entitled to their opinion, but that is mine
