Although for most of us not lucky enough to have a local law enforcement that cares like the above article, here is the final say on what most of us have to rely on should your bike is stolen in Southern California:

"........Lastly, if your bike is stolen, LAPD suggests you monitor Craigslist, where many stolen bikes are sold. If you see your bike listed, call your detective........"-http://www.dailynews.com/crime/ci_21...k-your-bike-at

It's all up to you! Because most are not as lucky as the man discussed in Post #15 above that has local law enforcement that are willing to do the hunting. It's mostly dumped in your lap.
