Ah, the little scally wags.
Local bobby I reported my stolen bike to popped back round on thursday night which I appreciated.
He saw the CCTV footage of my bike being stolen from my doorstep but due to lack of quality to confirm identity of suspect it's effectively useless. He did say however he possibly knows their identity anyway and they are known locally for it. Problem is more renound they are, less likely they are to hold on to it and get caught.
I went to both New Covent Garden and Brick Lane markets today in search of my bike. Got chatting to stall holders at both who kept their good stock in the van, not on show. He had an almost identicle GT to mine but was size down and couple years older. It's worth asking these guys if they have a bike that matches your bikes, as in 'got any with disc brakes'. Something specific enough to narrow it to yours but not enough to for them to cotton on you're searching for your stolen bike. If they do they won't be very helpful.
