This is contradicted by the article's findings that a substantial fraction (22/70) of bike thefts in Amsterdam flow through an organized system > The scholars found that still another 22 of the bikes made such sufficiently similar movements that they seemed to be part of the same “subnetwork” of bikes. > This research makes it clear that part of bicycle theft is organized. Beyond learning specific things about the flow of stolen bikes in Amsterdam, the research is part of a broader body of work by Senseable City Lab that uses these trackers to try to understand the flow of physical goods through complicated/emergent systems.
