Missing bike
by Linda Vicaro 13 Jan '20

13 Jan '20

My 8 year old’s bike was swiped from our front yard last night after he failed to put it away. If you see a black bike ditched somewhere, let me know! Alternatively, if your kid has a bike they have outgrown, I’m in the market for a new one! Thanks, Linda Mellon Street -- --- Linda Vicaro linda.vicaro(a)gmail.com
