This amazing photograph shows part of the haul that Toronto police recovered from a raid on a local bike shop. Pictured are stolen bikes in the possession of one shop owner, who had the bikes stashed in various locales—almost 3,000 stolen bikes. (That’s even more than the number of bikes in my basement.) Here is a New York Times story that provides some details. This guy certainly would be Public Enemy Number One on my list!

Opinions vary:
Click here and here, for example.
Not having been in Toronto, I’m agnostic on the subject.
Maybe the Pinarello needs to go to APSA 2009 to test out the friendliness conjecture.
Bike thieves are among the lowest of the low.
I thought this was the Wellesley College parking lot.
