Interesting study on bike theft in Amsterdam: https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0279906
100 bait bikes equipped with trackers and tracked over several months. Main result: Bike theft mostly happens in the early AM; stolen bikes remain local and get sold and put back into use quickly. There's a bunch more in the paper, so go ahead and take a read. #BikeTooter #StolenBikes

@haraldkliems That was great. Partly answered something I always wonder about (many people mention having had their bike stolen; few mention having bought a stolen bike. Where do they go?)
Definitely seems worth getting one of those GPS trackers since hardly any of them were noticed and removed.
