You know you've got a hot product when...
people are willing to risk jail time to get one! Last night at about 11:30 pm the display window at Green Wheelin Scooters was shattered and an brand new Ultra Motors A2B bicycle was stolen. That was the only thing that was taken from the store, not the computers, the TV/DVD, tools, nothing else, just the bike. Someone must've wanted it real bad! Let me back up just a little. Yesterday we had our Ultra Motors A2B demo ride in the parking lot at the store. We had a great turnout, people were very excited by the bike and its capabilities, we even sold a few of them! It was a successful event. As I was going home I was feeling pretty good about the day and how well things had gone. Then it happened, about 11:30, as I was relaxing and winding down my evening, my cell phone rang, it was the alarm company. The alarm was sounding at the store and they had dispatched the Walnut Creek PD. They would call me with an update as soon as they had more info. My heart sank, this was not the way I had envisioned my night going, I had a bad feeling that this wasn't just a false alarm. Within minutes the alarm company was calling back and they said that the front window had been broken and the police thought that a vehicle had been stolen, could I meet the PD at the store. I jumped in the truck and away into the night I went. As I drove up I couldn't see the front window, it was shattered in tiny glass rocks all over the sidewalk. It was obvious at this point that our Blue Ultra Motors A2B bicycle had been taken in a "smash and grab" robbery. The police were very professional and sympathetic, and explained to me that whoever was responsible had probably done this before, the M.O. was that of a pro. Anyway, if anybody out there happens to see a Blue Ultra Motor A2B in the next couple of days, please let the Walnut Creek PD know where and when you saw it, and if you can get a description of who is riding it that will help also. DO NOT TRY TO CONFRONT THE PERSON RIDING IT! There are very few of these bike in that color (it is new) on the streets, so the probability of it being hot is high. If you want to see the Ultra Motors A2B bicycle, come down to the store (please pardon the mess, as we replace the window) and test drive one. Then maybe you too can take one home, after you pay for it. ;^)
