*JULY UPDATE*
WE DID:
-Sergeant Tompkins and PC Page-Brown have attended the national cycle crime conference. Whilst there they were able to discuss best practice and develop ideas with colleagues from multiple police forces, councils and other partners. We look forward to progressing these ideas over the coming weeks.
-We have conducted numerous bike register events in the city centre. At the events, bikes will be marked with a unique code and added to the national Bike Register database, making it easier for police to reunite stolen bikes with their owners. It can also act as a deterrent to would-be thieves as the bike is permanently marked, making it more difficult to sell. Research suggests cyclists are 83% more likely to have their bike stolen if it is not Bike Register marked.
-July also saw another Operation PEDALFAST deployment. During the operation 6 first and only warnings were given to E-scooter riders, 6 first and only warnings were given to over powered E-bikes and 1 E-scooter was seized.
-The team took part in the active cycle tour across the city with partners. This gave us the ability to promote safe cycling in the city centre and develop our working relationship with partners. We are currently working together on projects to reduce cycle theft.
-Through Police enquires we have identified 2 males responsible for cycle theft. We are currently making attempts to locate and arrest these individuals.

WE DID:
-4 Suspects have been arrested and charged for theft of cycle offences. Targeting offenders that cause harm to the community is our priority.
-We have continued to conduct meaningful engagements to tackle cycle crime with 4 bike register events being conducted in the city centre during the month of August. At the events, bikes will be marked with a unique code and added to the national Bike Register database, making it easier for police to reunite stolen bikes with their owners. It can also act as a deterrent to would-be thieves as the bike is permanently marked, making it more difficult to sell. Research suggests cyclists are 83% more likely to have their bike stolen if it is not Bike Register marked.
-PC Tom and Sgt Zane are now part of an electric cycle forum to help understand and share the benefits of E-Bike use for the Police.
-Project Re-lock continues supporting those who have been the victim of cycle theft.
