On a residential street corner in Laramie Wyoming (!!!) as I was visiting family there.

 

[f-stop]

wasn't at this event in person, but I noticed a Tesla quickly flash by in a brief clip on the local 6pm TV News last night (maybe this belongs instead in the "Teslas in Movies & TV" thread?!?)

- a red refreshed Model S was the pace car for yesterday's Gastown Grand Prix bicycle race here in Vancouver.

the news clip was brief and I was too slow to catch a pic at the time but I found a video of the event elsewhere online

I can just hear someone razzing Tesla for being the pace car for a bicycle race

You wouldn't want the bicycle riders breathing in car exhaust, would you?

An electric car would make the perfect chase vehicle for a bike race.

Saw my first random Model S "in the wild" in this city today. I didn't react as well as I thought I would. As I was moving slowly through traffic I said to myself of the black car coming towards me "That car's front looks a lot like a Tesla's." Then realization hit, my jaw dropped and I did a double take just as I was passing by, "Hey! That is a Tesla."

I saw one yesterday on the Bronx River Parkway about 2:00 P.M. What made it interesting is it was a 2-tone black and grey Model S. I had not seen that before and slowed for it to catch up so I could snap a pic. Too late it exited the pkwy.

SERIOUSLY?
No one is going to point out the irony of a Tesla ruling in Gastown?

that's funny, I never gave it a thought!
fyi the Gastown area is named after "Gassy" Jack Deighton, a colourful saloon owner in early Vancouver history.
"In Victorian times the term 'to gas' referred to talking a lot, something which Captain Deighton had become famous for."

but now that you mention it, Vancouver city council makes a big deal about how "green" a city we are, and aims "to get 100% of our energy from renewable source before 2050". I wonder if it will have to rename Gastown then???
Anyhow in light of this goal, maybe appropriate to use a Model S as a pace car

Haven't checked here too much but this happened yesterday at a local Pizza joint near where I work in Rockville, MD:

Mine is the ride on the left...

Finally something an i3 or Leaf could easily handle!
