Rob’s Top Picks 🔝😎🤙🤩🍀

I’ve scoured the universe for the coolest stories this week and hand-picked the best ones to super-power your inbox!

Long Way Up

What happens when you try to ride electric motorcycles from the Southern tip of South America to LA? Actor Ewan McGregor (Yes Obi-Wan from Star Wars) and best friend Charley set off to find out. 

It’s a massive undertaking, but fascinating adventure full of challenges. If you thought you had range anxiety on your ebike, wait til you see these guys try to tackle 15000 miles with limited infrastructure…

If you’ve been longing for adventure you may find some inspiration here.

It streams on Apple TV

Açai Bowl

Have you ever had an Açai bowl? I dropped into a shop the other day after a ride and was amazed by the flavor. 

Açai is touted as a superfood packed with antioxidants and health benefits. Considering how sweet the bowls are though I’d treat this more like ice cream than a health food. A dessert to enjoy every after a bike ride that’s probably marginally better for you than ice cream. They sure are delicious though. Give one a try next time you fancy something sweet.

Ideogram AI Image Generator

^ This image was made with AI… AND the Acai bowl above was too. It took 10 seconds with this AI image generator. It’s free and makes some incredible results. So good I canceled my $10 midjourney subscription.

While I can’t use it to make myself a girlfriend… yet 😅,

I love creating images as placeholders for concepts, video ideas, thumbnails, even to concept aesthetics of new product or branding ideas. If you like to create, try this out and see what you come up with.

Going as hard as I could without losing a limb

Since then we’ve been meeting with pro-riders

Getting them to shred the prototypes and share feedback to make them better

Man these guys ride hard and fast

I’ve been inspired and impressed

Check out the new vid below to see what good riders can do with this sweet bike
