  8. Data from the Met Police shows that of the 18,800 London #BikeThefts between November 2021 and October 2022 only 206, or 1%, resulted in a charge or caution.

    The Met said "It is not possible to physically send officers, or to carry out a lengthy investigation, in every case" but 1% is pretty much no cases!

    It's as close to 0% as makes no real odds for people who lose a bike and a quarter of those people subsequently have stopped cycling.
