A neighbor told us that three homes on Marlborough have had children's bikes stolen out of the backyard recently. I'm working on getting descriptions of the bikes, but if you see or hear anything, call the police or let me know and I'll take care of it. Meanwhile, if you're storing bikes in your backyard, pick up an inexpensive chain and padlock, or a bike lock, from Lowes or Target. No one will bother trying to steal a locked up kid's bike! -- Rebecca Fernandez, Corporate Writer cell: 919.931.4957 rebeccagfernandez(a)gmail.com
