Stolen Bike April 7th or 8th
breezer_citizen
Our office bike was stolen this weekend from 1422 Monterey Street (same complex as Central Coast Brewing), and the lock was cut. The bike is a blue Breezer Citizen, with a rear rack and silver folding grocery baskets, a grey plastic chain guard, a cable lock connecting the seat to the seat post, and a green fluorescent sticker on the handlebars. I attached a photo of a similar model, but I don’t have a picture of the actual bike. If you see it please email jmjones (at) swca.com.
