LOL .... come back and the bike is there, and the thief is on the ground. You are all smiles ... until the cops slap the cuffs on you and you are charged with aggravated assault and reckless endangerment.
The thief gets off because he didn't actually steal anything. You get fines triple the value of the bike ... and a felony record.
