Cycle Task Force cops came in to my shop (East Central Cycles) incognito today asking whether we buy secondhand bikes. Of course we said 'only with a genuine proof of purchase'; then they revealed they were cops. They seemed really sensible and helpful, and genuinely enthusiastic cyclists who know their bikes too. Good to know they're on it: bike crime is terrible round here.
