Another long-term recovery

Just wanted to share another SBR success story:

Thought you might like to know that stolenbicycleregistry.com just helped me recover my bike more than seven months after it was stolen. I was walking through Chapel Hill, NC tonight and spotted my bike u-locked to a post; it had been stolen in October. Luckily, the police substation was about 200 feet away. The officer came to inspect the bike, but when she went to check if it had been reported stolen it turned out the police had never put my serial number in the database correctly. I remembered I'd registered on your site, so I used a police computer at the substation to look up my entry. It had the serial number, so I was able to get the cop to recover the bike for me when the guy came to unlock it five minutes later. So basically, thanks again and again. I still can't believe I have my bike back, if a little worse for the wear.

I think our current record for long-term recovery still stands at one year, but these always make me smile. :)
