Bike Arvin is cleaning up after one of their storefront windows was broken. Natalie Barrett from Bike Bakersfield and Bike Arvin said, a thief broke the window Thursday then stole almost all of Bike Arvin's scooters. 

Barrett said, “We are so busy with bike month that this has hit especially hard and is slowing things down for us."

He also said Bike Arvin will be closed Friday and their Friday bike ride is also canceled due to the break-in. They plan to reopen on Saturday from 11a.m. to 3p.m. and have their next Friday bike ride Friday, May 11 at 7 p.m.
