    Thanks everyone....it looked really cool Kat...kinda like flying! This was just a demo during lunch hour in the middle of 8th avenue SW in downtown Calgary! they shut down about a block and a half of street and it was pretty crowded.
    Too bad the weather shut him down... I would have liked to have seen lots more!
