Bike Thief Sting

So a lot of you know that my bike got stolen on saturday in fairfax, and today a kid at drake had his Giant Trance stolen, an Kavi had his bike stolen from the same rack. My guess is there is someone who is relatively local who knows where there are going to be some expensive bike that will be a quick buck for them. It sucks to say the the bike don't usually ever turn up, and the police don't do much about it either. But, I think if we set up some sort of sting, it would be pretty easy to catch this scumbag if we had a crew of volunteers. So if you are interested in doing this shoot me a text and we can see if we can get a crew going. I know it sounds stupid but our bikes are our babies and it would be nice for us to be able to send a message to all the thieves that we are willing to fight back.
