The Return of Napoleon – Episode 11

I found my stolen bike guys!!
In Toronto over the past few weeks, 3300 bikes were found in different locations around the city – all hoarded by a man named Igor Kenk. A man who deliberately steal bikes, dismembers them, and then ask theft victims if they could identify their bikes if they inquire.

He had bikes that he or others had stolen more than 8 years ago.
Yesterday, I went down to 30 Ordinance Rd to search through the bike rubble, frames, miscellaneous parts to find my Blue Raleigh Serengeti – the bike I had shipped out from Calgary that I had no proof for – no receipt, no serial number, nothing. The only thing I brought down to convince TO police was my laptop – opened to my video blog.

Much to my surprise the bike was there and the TO police happily gave it back to me. My bike is pretty much intact, its missing it’s pedals and it’s bell – but I’m pretty sure the brakes are new – so i’m not too disappointed. Amazing!

I’m going to register my bike now and hopefully after 6 months when Igor gets out of prison he wont steal it again.

Thanks for everyone’s support, It means a lot. I probably would have lost faith a while ago.
