Spotted an older black and bronze/gold Trek Remedy being ridden down princes street today by someone that didn't look like they would normally own it. Anyone had one stolen? I got a snap of the rider I can provide if it's useful to anyone.

How can you not normally look like you own a bike?

Post the pic up so that we can form a lynch mob.

Intuition tells you when someone on a bike ain’t the owner !!

Come on. You know exactly what the OP means. He's trying to be helpful, and in spite of his feeling that he should use discreet language, he was only doing what the police themselves have to do in order to catch bike thieves.

Good on you for keeping your eyes open, OP.

Suspicious looking footwear.

Doug, TJagain posted something similar about a suspicious bike/rider combo down in Leith about a week ago as well. Maybe worth comparing notes?
