    "Someone saw my bike hanging in the same stall over the course of a couple of weeks/months in a bike storage room at a business complex. They got curious, checked the serial number on Bike Index, found my information, and gave me a call. It was missing for 13 months, I had given up on getting it back. I'm so grateful for the person for looking out, being curious, and calling."

    "About a week after it was stolen, a pawn shop called the cops. When the bike was brought in, they ran the serial number in the bike registry and it returned stolen. They bought it from the dude, got his ID, and then gave me the bike and had the court pay them back. Just remembered to mark it recovered just in case it's stolen again."
