Ok, so this the Official thread for Stolen bikes... have already posted but let me do so again here ... as am recovering from the numbness and in some aspect morning the loss of a beloved GF :-(
... but my fantasy of catching a bike thief in "flagrant delit" nicking someone's cherished bike is bordering into Texas chainsaw scenes, where fingers are quite simply snapped off for good ;-)

@AlphaOmega - Cheers !
PS: I presume Eagle Eyed cyclist will snap a picture of the person's face up close and say
"nice bike, where did you get it ? "
if they suspect it's a stolen one ? ... well, am guessing and don't know what the etiquette is , but I can presume if the frame / cycle is confirmed to be stolen by the owner, what follows is to upload the pic to Facebook asking if anyone can identify ... which is like a "naming & shaming" of the shister ?

Have got myself to blame, but it smacks of planning - what are the odds thieves carry bolt cutters under their jackets on the streets of London for opportunist bike thieving at night ?
I did lock it that way simply because it felt easier to unlock/lock, as one has to go up some stairs to street level, and then go past a gate...which was unlocked since Wednesday night for rubbish collection on Thursday... I did not think a thief would persevere, which suggest a planned return with bolt cutters on Friday night ...
Usually riding along on Millbank on alternate evenings as I usually do - upto Houses of Parliament and back towards Chelsea Bridge and occasionally Wandsworth Bridge; but will be out in force starting Feb./March 2018 as weather warms up. Mainly interval training.
Riding Stronglight 46X12/13 , MAVIC Ellipse, and EXUSTAR spd with dual leather straps.
Yes, former Crit & track racer - France / USA. So dont be shy and say Hello
