Long Way Home – Grindhouse Coffee to The Pie Guy on a Vespa

A ride out west from Grindhouse Coffee in North Portland to The Pie Guy in Mountaindale, OR.

There are a lot of fun roads to ride in Oregon and one of the easiest to access is Skyline to Germantown just outside of Downtown Portland. Start by heading up W Burnside into the hills, and then just keep to the right to get onto Skyline and go straight until you get to Germantown. Other routes to get up there from the city center include SW Broadway, SW Vista, and NW Cornell. Some aren’t as direct and require a little more navigation, but whichever you choose will be scenic and fun.

On this route you can check out:
The Aubrey Watzek House
Skyline Restaurant
Skyline Tavern
Two Stroke Coffee Co
Tienda Santa Cruz

VESPA RACING SIXTIES

To revive the Vespa’s competitive side Vespa Racing Sixties are inspired by the winning racing cars by all the elements characterizing the roaring 60s.

THE SIXTIES

An iconic decade, in which a vehicle was not truly ‘yours’ until you changed its color, bodywork, handlebars, saddle and any detail whetted by your
imagination. A legendary era, where the ‘gentlemen riders’ took to the track, pilots as attentive to performance as to
the aesthetics of their vehicles.
A golden age of the British in car competition. The winning team Lotus not only marks the victory record but also marks the image that flashes to mind as soon as we talk about races.
