I do a lot of bike theft prevention work for the Bay Area in my spare time, 
and I maintain this Google group 
https://groups.google.com/group/stolen-bicycles-bay-area/ that has tips 
on theft prevention and stolen bike recovery. 

Feel free to get in touch if anyone needs advice, or just friend me on 
Facebook http://www.facebook.com/plattyjo as I use my account to share 
info about stolen bikes.

Cheers,

Jenny

I have an Atlantis too and live nearby in Oakland. I'll certainly keep an 
eye out for it. Can't tell from the photo but are those 26-inch or 700c 
wheels?

Another resource that can help ID a stolen bike is the bike-porn site a 
href=http://velospace.org/;velospace/a. There's a field in the bike 
listings which allows you to post your serial number (in addition to 
photos, component lists and notes). Since the serial number is only visible 
to the user who posted the bike in the first place, it's a way of 
documenting your connection to the bike itself, since you have to log into 
the creating account to see the number. It's much like sticking a card with 
your driver's license number into the seat tube.

Unbelievable effort.  Someone had really scoped out the site, and must have 
had serious cutting equipment.  I've written down the serial numbers on our 
bikes.  That would help ID them in case the thieves are caught and the bike 
has gotten a cosmetic make-over.  Also recall Rivendell is maintaining a 
serial number list.

Please encourage everyone you know to register their bikes on Bike Index:
https://bikeindex.org/

The more bikes on there, the more police departments will know about it,
the better chance at catching criminals and retrieving bikes!
