Seems that cyclists are too stupid to steal a car, and far too
stupid to even steal a bicycle.
Shower of ******s.

I liked the bit where the miscreant was said not to be able to make
progress beyond a set of red traffic lights because there were too
many pedestrians (presumably crossing the road).

That tends to prove your theory: the thief was clever enough to steal
the bike (if cleverness is what's needed) so clearly no cyclist, but
on the other hand, he must have been a member of that group for whom
red traffic lights and pedestrians crossing the road are no
obstruction whatsoever.
