Beaver Land Mine Ride is a steel roller coaster at Geauga Lake in Aurora, Ohio. It is a standard production model coaster from Zierer. It is known for having the longest train of any coaster (with 20, 2-seat cars) at Geauga Lake, and it also the only coaster in the park to complete a full circuit twice while in operation. It's height restrictions are among the most accommodating in the whole park.
This ride was installed as "Roadrunner Express" during the transition to Six Flags Ohio in 2000, and is one of three identical coasters installed in Six Flags parks that year. The other two are at Six Flags New England and Six Flags Discovery Kingdom.
The ride is closed pending Cedar Fair's relocation or demolition plans which have yet to be revealed. Rumor has it that the ride will be shipped to Cedar Point, as people believe that the kiddie section will be expanded, including some flat rides.
