  • Attend Brick Lane Police Station, 25 Brick Lane, E1 with your crime reference number & you will be able to look through the seized cycle picture folder & hopefully identify your bike.

    NB The current batch of seized bikes date back to October 2004.

    Must be a pretty sturdy folder - first i've heard of that, thanks. When I spoke to the police about the bikes they were confiscating, the policeman was a bit hissy n said it's a pointless exercise because it's mostly impossible to prove without frame numbers matching up with stolen ones, and so no-one can be charged. I think hefty cyclist presence, and photos that could be posted here would be good, but it would need quite a sizable group to do it, but it's a really horrible, intimidating environment, and I can't imagine many folks wanting to risk dealing with that. Would be really good to just get a coupla community support officers posted for a coupla hours on that corner.
