Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
STOLEN BIKE - Pinnacle Lithium 3 2013 - PLEASE READ
Hello guys,
My name is Darren and I am asking you to keep an eye out for my stolen bike.
Unfortunately, the police have no more lines of enquiry and have closed my crime report under outcome code 18. This means it is up to me to create new lines of enquiry, without tipping off the thief. This is one such way.
The bike in question is a blue men's hybrid bike.

The attached poster has more details. Please feel free to print it off, but do not distribute this poster. The thief may see it and dispose of my bike before the police can get to it.
I suspect the thief still has the bike or has sold it to someone within Harringay.
If the bike is safe enough to retrieve then please do so and call the police on 101, so they can take it from you.
If you are unable to do this, please leave the location of the bike, call the police on 101 and use my crime reference number to inform them of its location.
If you wish to report information to the police anonymously then replace 101 with 0800 555 111, which is the crimestoppers number.
The bike was stolen on Thursday 2nd July 2015 between 0200 and 0300 hours.
It was stolen from Effingham Road, London, N8 0AB.
A witness has said the thief is Eastern European and was wearing a black & red striped Nike t-shirt.
There is a potential reward of £100 if my bike is safely returned to the police intact.
All assistance is appreciated. I hope this goes a long way to deterring bike theft.
Cheers
Darren

Within the first week of the bike being stolen, I'm relying primarily on the community looking for it.
HOL is just one part of that. There's car boot sales, bike shops, schools, churches, scrap dealers, cash converters, etc.
It's not so much them seeing the crime itself, but spotting the bike after the fact.
If the bike is still in the community, this action will create a lot of pressure for it to resurface.
My hope is that the thief is then caught in the process, but it only works if people are willing to help me.
I've retrieved a bike this way in the past, so I know it does work. However, more time has elapsed since noticing my bike was stolen and I'm unfamiliar with London, which makes it harder to get the bike back.

Following John D's parenthetic suggestion, I'm setting off tomorrow on a bike run through ten, fifteen or twenty Eastern European countries as far as the Urals and Caucasus. I'll keep an eye out for all obviously nicked blue men's bikes, especially where attached to clearly stolen Nike t-shirts. Like the police, I'll report back under Outcome Code 18 around December 2025.
