That's right UA5 , Urban Assault 5 ! Dashing Through the Core . 5 Times we went into the core , downtown Calgary . 5 Times I asked people if they wanted to go for a different trail run . And everytime people said Hell Ya !! I said , But , Its cold out ? They said , We don't care , lets go . So we did it again . The coldest Assault on record . We broke the record for attendance ! It was -15 celcius before the wind chill . I got there early and waited to see how many would show up , I was blown away ! What a turnout ! We had 42 as the highest number , although it went down a bit with breakages . A run like this is an Endurance run , for some its bad news when they find a problem in the parking lot and have to turn back or go anyway with no rig . Others start off strong but breakage can hit you when you least expect it . The cold is not for everyone . The cold , the long run . Can affect parts , electronics have a habit of acting up at the worst possible times . What a crew of Troopers though I tell you what ! We had guys and gals , The TRCC mom and pop team , a few young ones . A great time , Its so cool to look behind you on a city block and see a group of people spread through the whole block with rc;'s ! We always behave as far as traffic controls and pedestrians and stuff go . We want all positive feedback from these runs . All the people we see love the rigs , most are friendly and chatty even ,. Calgary is a great city , I love it here . I really like these runs , seeing all the people and showing off the fun we have with our rc's is just so cool . I thank each and every one of you for coming out ! I hope you enjoyed yourself and weren't too cold ! Special Thanks to JD for running around and getting some cool shots of the rigs and drivers . He was without truck and mandaroo this night so filmed the whole run . Subscribe , It's Free !!
