Yes, but thefts from homes have always been the majority of bike thefts. This was mostly from sheds or gardens, and I do think that it's novel how many bikes are taken in burglaries. I haven't seen numbers on that for years, though, and I suspect the figures include a large number of (more or less opportunistic) thefts from hallways, e.g. the spate in Lower Clapton a few years ago.

It's really fucking depressing that so many bikes are being stolen from people's flats now as well as when they're locked up on the street. :(
