Yes! Glad to hear that Bike Batman is still going strong. Thanks for sharing this with us. The Outside Magazine article is an excellent and in depth view of the activities of this 'super hero'. There is a lot of interesting info in it on the subject of stolen bikes. Take a little time to read it if you've ever had a bike stolen.

And again I'll say, I wish Bike Batman could 'hang around' here for awhile.

The homicide rate in Seattle, as of 2014, was 3.9 per 100,000 people.  Our homicide rate in Chicago was 18.6 per 100,000 in 2015, and higher this year.  If Bike Batman tried operating in Chicago, I suspect he would eventually find himself ventilated in an undesirable way.  Not to mention the divorce. 

Bike Repo Man is a cooler name. Just sayin'.
