See attachment from North Van RCMP.

I know most of us know this, but a refresher on tips is always a good idea.

Also, log your serial numbers.

Yeah, log your damn serial #'s so my friend (rcmp officer and avid cyclist) can actually grab your bike when he runs the # and it comes up stolen. Help him help you.

Dumb question, but do you need to report to any specific detachment/division of the RCMP or is there a central database? My wife called the non-emergency VPD line to report her bike stolen (see other thread). I assume VPD/RCMP all use a national database for serial numbers?

Yes there is a national database so you can report to your closest detachment and all will see.
