About five years ago I occasionally walked past an orange Sam Hillborne that had been locked up in one place, outdoors, for so long that the components were all rusted and the spokes were a tangle of spider webs. I stopped by my local police station and asked an officer if the owner could be notified. Or, failing that, was there a specific point at which a locked bike could be considered abandoned? The officer said no. And he added that no matter how long that bike might sit, "it's someone else's property." Fair enough. I stopped wondering about the bike. Then a few months later, I walked past Sam's parking place and the bike was gone. I never knew if a thief took it or the owner came back to claim it.
