Recovery Notes:
On 10/17/2014, the CSBR received notice from the victim that the bike had been recovered: "The bike shop--Ciclo Urbano, that first spotted the bike and reported it to me--kept an eye out for the kid who had the bike. He came in last week to get a flat tire fixed and the bike shop was able to have the police come and recover the bike. He claimed his dad bought it for him from a guy at the gas station for $50. The U lock was still on it."
