No. But Scooterwest mentioned this twice in one week on their own FB page and I didn't see it brought up here. If it's some kind of inside joke, it's an odd one. Positive

I somewhat doubt it. The photo on the Motorsport site showing Robot standing in front of the Vespa Portland shop was taken some time ago when he was in Portland and had nothing to do with a buyout. ⚠️ Last edited by Dooglas on UTC; edited 1 time

These guys are great friends and always take jabs at each other here and there. Robot made an appearance over the summer here in Rip City staying with Andrew for a rally. This is all good fun....
