“Winter is coming” and you know what that means! Our favorite event is back for the third year in a row; the third annual Winter Riders Challenge!
The rider with the most miles ridden between December 21st, 2020 and March 19th, 2021 will receive a Velomacchi 50 Liter Hybrid Duffel Travel Backpack. The rider with the second most miles will receive a rain suit.
This year we will have all engine sizes in the same category. Everyone who rides a 50cc and up is welcome to participate.
Send us a picture of your odometer on Monday, December 21st, on Facebook, Instagram, or email us at info@vespaportland.com. You can start the challenge after December 21st if you choose, but you’ll be starting at a disadvantage.
As often as you’d like, check in with us to have your total miles updated. You can either stop by Vespa Portland or send us an updated photo on Facebook Messenger or Instagram. We’ll post standings periodically throughout the winter to show who is on top!
While enjoying this friendly yet likely chilly competition, please note that we do not recommend anyone ride in snowy or icy conditions and that caution should be exercised while riding in cold conditions in general. Vespa Portland is not liable for any damages or injuries that may result from participating in the Winter Riders Challenge.
Final odometer readings must be given to Vespa Portland by March 19th, 2021 to be counted toward the final mileage totals. Due to the nature of the competition, no grace period after March 19th can be allowed.
No purchase necessary. The competition is open to all modern and vintage scooter riders in the Portland, OR area.
Vespa Portland staff will also be riding in the competition but are not eligible to win.
A grip lock may help keep your scooter secure when you’re not around to keep an eye on it.
