Will Disney let you ride rides with a cast?

You will be enjoying your magical vacation in no time.

You can ride on anything so long as the safety constraints will work. So something like the California Screamin' Roller Coaster might not work for you. But I would find a Cast Member (employee) near the rides entrance and ask their advice and if they think you could fit into the attraction.
