First Leaf delivered to Lance Armstrong

This video does show him driving it. Not sure how often he drives it around though.

wonder what his thoughts he has on the "73 mile" debate?

Interesting video.

From what I could tell, the car has a California DST plate on it - a Distributor plate. I'm not sure that the car can be driven for very long with that plate - it would imply that the car is still owned, insured, registered, etc. by Nissan, not by Lance. But at least the video shows it moving around.

He's in Florida today. The guy travels a ton and is rarely home so he won't be driving it much. I follow his twitter acct since I'm in to bike riding as well

But why does it have a CA DST plate (in the video) ? And has that changed recently (he's in Austin, right) ?

I thought it was a pre-production unit? That would mean that technically Nissan does own the car, Lance just is borrowing it for free...
