Great to hear but why do we need to send details to them, surely they have a database???
146 bikes recovered ! Bloody hell...
Furryhead, unfortunately not everybody knows about their bike beyond the fact it had two wheels, the colour and maybe how many gears. There is also input error, I searched our database for a suspected stolen Kona and drew a blank. Only when searching wider, which took ages did I find it. I imagine the conversation went like this, "what is your bike called" reply " a Kona"
Guess what it was recorded as? Akona. Face palm. Jobs hard enough without crap like that.
I don't even know how many gears mine has, so go figure.

+1 soulwood.
Also, force crime recording systems are just that, force wide. If your stolen bike gets taken across a force border and its recovered, they wont have it on record (some of the bikes in Rochdale could have come from west yorkshire for instance). The solution - www.immobilise.com.
