August was pretty bananas here at the Bike Index. Lots of recoveries, lots of near-misses, lots of exciting new partnerships coming along - and a nice Bike Index mention in Outside magazine! :O

I'm going to switch it up a bit in this edition and include some of our 'misses' - stolen bikes that were spotted & flagged, but still got away. It's nice to focus on all the bikes we recover, but there's a lot to be learned from bikes that get away, so I'm sharing some of those stories as well.

In this edition:

As always - before we begin - quick favor to ask:

1) Please tell your local bike shop about the Bike Index! We're getting great recoveries thanks to our bike shop partners - and we could always use more.

2) Haven't registered your bikes yet? Seriously … you're killin' me here … what are you waiting for? Please register ASAP, and tell your friends.

Thanks everybody! Keep your bikes safe!

-Bryan
