Police and thieves

I’m still reeling from my recent loss and the more I look the more I find that bikes are going missing at a rapid rate. Would anybody be interested in joining me in a covert opeeration and is it legal?

I want to bate a bike with the latest tracker device and leave it in hotspots. I can’t survey it all the time but would like to share the responsibility. I would like (and so would other I assume) to find out exactly where these thieves are taking them. To catch them in the act on camera, follow them and shut down there operation. I would like the assistance of the police.

Who’s interested?

I think it would be interesting mission, but where do you get the bait from?

Recurring subject here for years… Will never happen!!!
Let cops do their job. If you do not like the way they do it, vote for a change at the next local/national election or move to the US where they run operation like that all the time with both bike and cars…

There was a program on Five that did that sort of thing, they planted laptop’s fitted with trackers and left them in cars parked in crime hot spots… they were soon broken into and stolen. Then the police and the shows presenter went and paid them a visit :smiley: Cant remember what that show was called at all though or whether its still running.
Id say try and find a TV show that does that sort of thing and suggest it to them.

channel 4 did the same for bicycles

presented by the gangsters best friend- donal mcintyre.

cant remember the name of it though!

I think the show your referring to was the one by Donal McIntyre if im not mistaken.
