It would be great for Lewis to switch to FE.

He sold the jet, flies commercial, fur is banned in CA, and LH’s Tommy line is vegan.

So do nothing instead of something? Got it.

To name a few issues, the livestock industry:

Since you asked:

Well the BMWs did have several issues, and the KTMs were more off-road oriented (much closer to the actual Dakar bikes). BMW was just smart enough to not be worried about the inevitable issues and look at how that gamble paid off...

I suck at sleeping while travelling. But to add to the discussion, this site has tip on sleeping in any major airport in the world. Like what stores and restaurants are open all night, comfy seats in certain terminals, if security will harass you, and power outlet availability.

Possibly battery swaps, but the trucks will have a greater range that they could charge maybe in the bigger cities. Rivian is obviously using this as a marketing tool also, so I assume they have a plan for that.

Eh, they’re getting paid to do it, unlike any of us. But yes it seems like it would be tedious. I’m curious as to how they’re going to handle that. I know they have support vehicles, at least one of which is a Rivian R1T. Maybe they can charge from the trucks?

Can’t argue with that, but it seemed the KTMs of the time were more off-road oriented than the BMWs. I don’t know how they would have handled all the extra weight they put on them though. But remember the BMW’s frames cracked and they had multiple shocks blow, just off the top of my head.

They’re keeping it pretty low-key becasue they are going near well-populated areas and don’t want to be found by fans along the way. Claudio is apparently with them too.

Of course, just like the BMWs or the KTMs they wanted in LWR and LWD, but got turned down for.

Not sure what your point was at all.

The Man Who Would Kill Horse Racing

Yeah, got Kinja’d, of course. It’s been many years since they started using that system and it’s never worked properly for me.

Thanks for posting this Elizabeth. People may want to poke fun or completely tune out, but Lewis and other top athletes shedding light on the problems with our food system is supper important and will be necessary to address if we hope to make a dent in climate change, among MANY other issues. 

1. Nobody is eating a burger of any kind with health as a main concern.

Although I personally agree with that, it’s a very, very minor point. It’s pretty analogous to the various fake meat products that try to replicate taste and texture of real meat.

Yeah supps are fine. There are many top level pro athletes who have been vegan for a long time with issues (keep an eye out for the soon to be released doc, The Game Changers). Don’t forget that most livestock is supplemented with B12 becasue their diets are so unnatural. And with that, most people are deficient in…
