MODMO presents Stolen Ride, a UK-based initiative that began on Twitter in 2012 to unite cyclists in recovering stolen bikes. Stolen Ride now operates across multiple social media platforms and has grown into a respected community with over 20,000 London cyclists. The platform enables victims to post details of stolen bikes, mobilizing the community to help spot and recover them—sometimes within hours. Stolen Ride also offers theft prevention advice, insurance recommendations, and promotes secure bike parking. The website features an interactive theft map for London and articles on locking techniques and online safety. Stolen Ride collaborates with industry partners to improve security and awareness, aiming to reduce theft rates and support victims. The initiative demonstrates the power of community-driven action and digital tools in combating bike theft in urban environments.
