hold on guys... half of the bikes stolen in london are not reported simply because the general concensus is that police do nothing about it, that creates a catch 22 situation. secondly we all assume the bikes we think are stolen are stolen, the police can't raid someones house because of an add on gumtree if the bike 'looks' stolen, they can only go there and search the premises if it was reported in the first place by the victim whether it's 1 bike or 15.
reminds me of this thread http://www.londonfgss.com/thread13964.html where a passer by called thinking winston and ted were theives.
@matt, glad to hear you got the bike back by the way
