Awesome! Howie just sent me a note, apparently Tesla set us up with two Wall Connect 80 amp chargers just in time for the Summit!

They just put in a charger at Pinkham too, which the story missed. PlugShare - EV Charging Station Map - Find a place to charge your car!

It was/is clearly not a scam. I put together a series of stories on InsideEVs on Mission, but probably the best place to start is here: Mission Motorcycles Becomes Mission Electric - Boats Cars to Come- Mission R/RS Delayed Also this: A Motorcycle Called Mission: The Continuing Saga It was...

Not to pimp myself... well, OK, I'm pimping myself, but I wanted to get this out there. :D I just started a book project: Power in Flux- The History of Electric Motorcycles. (Just to keep on-topic, yes, the rise and demise of Mission will be included... ;) ) Here's the outline, which is...

Awesome! Sorry, I just saw this - my post was moderated for a long time I guess. :) Glad you had fun, this year, since it's July, maybe it'll be warm, too! Good points on the charging, but we're still going to be open for camping on Friday afternoon, and will be loitering around on...

That'd be my guess too. Providence Highway is two lanes, one direction only, so you naturally come into the lot at the right side. Having the SC on the left side seems like a natural flow, and yeah, very visible from the street. Was passing by there this week and there were about a dozen...

Just stopped by there after some information in the paper from the last Planning Board meeting. Demolition has begun on the interior. It sounds like they're keeping the building intact, and just doing interior mods. I guess the landscaping is an issue - Tesla doesn't want to spend a lot of...

Thanks - yes, having open battery contacts is a double-edged sword, for sure. Easy maintenance, easy cleaning and checking, nervewracking at shows with little kids... :crying: It's a replica of a 1972 Yamaha TD2 roadracer built on a 1971 R5 chassis. Faster, quicker and lighter than the...

Nothin' much brewing at the site, except the pile of tires, LP grill bottles and grill were cleaned up after the snow receded. Took this shot of my bike in front of the rear service entrance while I was checking it out:

Don't forget JP Licks: J.P. Licks at Legacy Place in Dedham, MA :: 781-329-9100 - MA :D

But for charging, they have a half-hour to kill or so, right?

I just swung by there, and passed a black Model S turning into Legacy Place on the way... anybody from here? :biggrin: It's within walking distance to what's a pretty great mall, but you've gotta wonder if they'll provide a shuttle or golf-carts to customers to get there. I'll post...

WOW, just saw this! I live about a mile away - gonna have to add this to my daily routine... Thanks for posting!

This is true - thanks for the post. We've scheduled the Alt Energy Summit for July 25 this year, and it's the 40th anniversary of the first "Alt Energy Regatta". This year it will be focused on a one-day Saturday event. All the information is here: ALT Energy Summit presented by NH Electric...

More Musk stalking. I blame you guys. Via my new favorite Musk-information feed site, I found this lengthy story on the history of Tesla - starting long before Musk in the '90s with a car built by AC Propulsion (tzero). Some interesting emails from Musk early on, too, in a...
