    "A man called me saying he bought the bike, and was going to register it on Bike Index, then he found that it was posted stolen, so we met up and I got it back. He didn’t ask for anything, but I payed him what he paid for it, which wasn’t too much luckily. When someone is so kind and does the right thing, it should be rewarded. I’m very happy I got my bike back!"
