there are only about 2 bikes on there worth recovering! Should the Police really be wasting their time trying to find owners of cheap old worthless bikes?

There may be more to it than simply trying to return the goods to the people who lost them. Part of a larger find perhaps!
And its not just bikes by the way. Should the same apply?

I'd be rather peeved if I discovered that the police had found my stolen bike but chucked it away because they felt it didn't meet some arbitrary standard!
A £50 bike which was the only mode of commute to a poor worker maybe be 'worth' a lot more than a £1,000 bike to a rich hobbyist.
What's worthless to you could be a lot of money to somebody else is they don't have much money.

Agreed, but not many of those bikes are worth £50. There are not many working people in UK/Ireland that couldn't afford to replace a £50 bike sooner or later.

Snob!
And do I think that the Police are wasting time trying to return stolen property? No, it's part of their role in society!

Tripe. There's at least two in this house that would have to get into debt to buy a £50 bike.

Great idea.
I wish my local force had something like this. I'd love to find my stolen bike, as it was my first!

Most of them would be better than walking to work at 5am on a wet Monday morning maybe not the go cart but that`s not the point, if the police only recover what you think is a good bike then they are only working for the well off. Is that what you want.
