i'm sure he knows it was a dumb idea now guys, give him a break. I had a bike stolen on my birthday in January 2007 and I got hold of it again in August that year. Never thought I would see it again to be honest. Got really down about it at the time though, but the best thing to do is get saving and get another cheap bike sorted, then it may turn up and you can sell it or whatever. But the police tracked cctv of the guy riding off on my bike, got his face and all but didn't make any difference at all.
