When it happened to me the police did nothing, even after reports of
traps being set on 3 consecutive days. I think what put a stop to it
was probably the perps being among the many people to see me having my
photo taken at the scene for the local paper.
About a year later the story featured in an article on the local BBC TV
news about cyclepath safety (I don't know why I didn't think to contact
them at the time). This caused a brief storm in the local media. One
colleague told me that he had heard a police spokesman being interviewed
about it on the radio and saying that they were investigating. It
occurred to us that they may have left the investigation a bit late...
Anyway, you can still see the original Bristol Observer and Bath
Chronicle articles here:
