Wow!  An interactive map that works really well.
Looks like Perth is sin city on a theft per capita basis.
Having said that, I believe they have a higher bike ownership rate than other cities.  Must be the perfect cool weather they have year-round.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

There were a couple missing in the GAFA as well.. How did they get stolen out there???

Would be interesting to see what type of bike was stolen as well, might have a high proportion of dirt bikes, lots of those go missing

I noticed only one stolen from my area......it may have been a road bike as a lot of dirt/farm bikes get stolen from around here.
