Sixth Annual Winter Riders Challenge

The first day of winter is only a few days away and here at Vespa Portland that can only mean one thing…our favorite event is back for the SIXTH year in a row; the sixth annual Winter Riders Challenge! Starting December 21st and ending March 20th.

This year we are excited to welcome our neighbors to the north in Tacoma, South Sound Scooters, to their very first Winter Riders Challenge! This year they’ll be joining us in some friendly competition. At the end of the challenge, we’ll compare our riders average mileage to South Sound’s to see who comes out on top and gets 2024 bragging rights.

Let’s show them what we’re made of Portland!

WHAT IS IT?

The rider with the most miles ridden between December 21st, 2023 and March 20th, 2024 wins! This year we have rewards for everyone who signs up and special prizes for different mileage tiers. Whoever rides the most miles at the end of the challenge wins 1st place and the grand prize.

Final odometer readings must be given to Vespa Portland by March 20th, 2024 to be counted toward the final mileage totals. Due to the nature of the competition, no grace period after March 20th 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.

HOW DO I SIGN UP?

Send us a picture of your odometer on Wednesday, December 21st, on Facebook, Instagram, email at info@vespaportland.com, or text us at 503-222-3779. You can also stop by the shop with your scooter and we’ll check your odometer in person. You can start the challenge after December 21st if you choose, but you’ll be starting at a disadvantage.

HOW DO I TRACK MY PROGRESS?

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. We’ll post standings periodically throughout the winter season to show who is on top!
