Always nice too see young folk interested in staying fit, one sport he might benefit from involves a Louisville Slugger! Participation!

Id guess he's probably test-riding a bicycle for a senior and is simply looking for a wrench to tighten the handlebar.

1:09 am. Driveway. Installed cameras to see who was pilfering through my cars. Figured it was a neighbor but no. Like who the hell wears white while going through cars? Amateur.

Pretty good resolution, can I ask what camera you're using? Thinking of upgrading my security measures.

Pretty cheap and easy to install. I have 3 of them around the outside.

I use ispy to record video but it wasn't open of course.

I was thinking of installing a motion light now too. Anyone have a good one they can suggest?

Too bad you didn't have a paintball gun. It isn't a lethal weapon and he is not likely to go running to the cops.

My buddy is a cop in my area. Chances are they know the guy. I asked if I could have a talk with him out in the country if they pick him up.

The video worth be worth a fortune if the camera was running when you splattered the back of his head with paintball. I wonder if he would drop as if he had been with a 338 Lapua or if the adrenaline would allow him to pedal away. Might depend on how high he was at the time.

Not the worst idea I've heard today.

I like it.

Love to have a trap door with a hungry lions release when some thief triggers the handle on the vehicle.

You could watch the video over and over and over again and just laugh your butt off.

You are assuming he had an 8 to 5 job.

Every time I see a guy old enough to grow facial hair riding a BMX bike with a backpack on, I wanna run him over. Usually wearing a track suit too. Almost always a white one (the track suit. I'm not gonna get into nationality).

Too cool! Awfully nice of him to check for those locked doors.

What region (N/S E/W) of the city? I'll keep my eye out for him and perhaps you can take him on that country drive....

It seems unusual that he’s not wearing a hoodie, perhaps that’s his disguise.? “Officer, you can’t honestly suspect someone who isn’t wearing a hoodie, can you?”

I agree.. But that's a mountain bike, you can tell by the shifters by his right hand.

Post his picture on every telephone and light post in the area.
Caption saying what you wrote.

Ask for help to find him so you can thank him personally.

Most likely its not white, most nylons, gortex and other synthetic fabrics light up under infra red light and appear white because they reflect so much light back to the lens.

The photo below shows all camo clothing, a 5.11 rush back pack in forest green. As you can see much of it appears white. The pants have that UV coating on them don't reflect nearly as much light back.



Anyways I hope you find the guy and lets hope karma has many plans for him.
