Stolen bikes

hi all
sadly, had my bike stolen today -- not sure what time -- from regent street corner charles ii. about 100m from piccadilly circus and a few thousand tourists. totally gutted. i'm sure whoever did it was spotted by a gazillion people.

i went to the police station and they say they hardly recover a bike, so things look bad from that side. bike is a dawes giro 400, graphit/white/red frame color, 24 gears (yeah, i know, geared..), etc. were you around taking pics at the time by any chance? :)

btw, has anyone managed to recover anything, going to brick lane or something?

sad sad sad cheers :

listen i know this seems a bit weird but i saw 3 hooligans, riding around oxford circus, one was on a geared silver dawes about say, small size... my information doesn't help much but it occurred immediately that the bike he was riding could have been stolen.
