They used to put them on ships to Australia... I notice the OP is from there  
Good that the bike has been found and is fixable.
When my garage was cracked and 2 bikes stolen a few years back Shane Cooper of the Buttershaw Estate in Bradford, West Yorkshire was identified as one of the thieves. He left a fag end outside our front door and was identified from his DNA. However he was let off as he was "only" 17 and hence didn't know the difference between right and wrong.
Many bike and car thieves in the UK think the rewards of their pastime are worth the risks of getting caught, because if they are, the criminal justice system is a standing joke and all they'll receive is a "severe letting off".
Shame that more people in the UK don't have baseball as a national pastime.
