January 5, 20123 Comments on Santa Cruz Police: 396 bikes stolen in 2011
Lock your bike, Bro.
Santa Cruz Police report that 396 bikes were stolen last year, a sharp increase over previous years when 213 bike thefts were reported in 2010 and 177 in 2009.
Bike registration, which is required for city residents, costs $3 and can aid in the return of your property. Santa Cruz police check their records if they see bike registration on a recovered bike.
January 2, 20129 Comments on 3 foot law for Indiana?

More about this at attorney Doug Masson’s blog. Thank you to David Pulliam for the tip.
