There are more than 15,000 riders registered to take part in RAGBRAI 2021 beginning this Sunday, and that number grows exponentially when you factor in the day riders and support individuals. One of the things sure to get stressed at nearly every point along the route is wireless service. UScellular has announced that as Sac City and points east prepare for that massive influx of people, they are bringing in a Cell on Light Truck (COLT) to increase wireless capacity for Sunday’s overnight. The majority of attendees are relying on smartphones to stay connected with family and friends, share photos, post to social media and more. “We want to help ensure that everyone who comes to enjoy RAGBRAI can use their smartphone like they want to,” says Dee Taylor, director of sales for western Iowa. The COLT provides added network capacity for the increased data usage and thousands of calls and messages cyclists will make on the stop. In addition, the temporary site will increase UScellular’s network capacity in Sac City. The COLT will also be deployed to the area’s largest summer country music festival, the Guthrie River Ruckus in Guthrie Center next weekend.
