As part of a commitment to reduce property crime, Comox Valley Crime Stoppers recognizes the effectiveness of the Project 529 Garage (www.project529.com), a website and phone app that allows cyclists to easily and securely register their bikes online.
Registration is free and bike owners also have the option of affixing a tamper resistant sticker with a registration number on their bike for easy identification.
The main advantage is that often Bike theft victims often don't have the serial number of adequate detail to identify their bike successfully, making it very difficult for Police to reunite recovered bikes with their rightful owners.
Further information regarding free events during the Bike to Work Week will be coming shortly.
