well here's an interesting update!
My girlfriend found her bike locked up to a lamppost in Brick Lane yesterday, complete with the stickers still in place (so there's no doubt). She found the girl who has it now, and discovered that she bought it from the second hand furniture place next to Rockit on Brick Lane.
It seems they are selling on stolen bikes!
They reported it to the police, and I think they are going to go and pay the shop a visit today. Get the girl her money back and give my girfriend back her bike!
I said I hoped they gave the shop an earful, and the PC responded "We don't tell people off sir, we arrest them"
I guess watch this space, and tell your friends to keep clear of the shop.
