The evening of 9/3 My Sondors Thin eBike and Cargo trailer was stolen out of my garage drive around 9PM, while I was working in the garage.
This is in the Northloop neighborhood near 56th & Ave F.

The eBike has a black plastic battery box that fills the frame triangle with the name "Sondors" in white lettering.

Both the bike and trailer are black, they also took my Giro helmet, Bungees, cords and cargo nets.
The computer display bracket is broken on the handle bar and is held in place with rubber bands.
The Hand grips are made by Lumma and have integral light system.

I’ve made a report to APD, if you see the bike, call 911 and refer to report T17004298.

Folks,

After a year of riding an ebike, I've had enough close calls that I think it's time to consider a helmet camera.
I'm looking for a camera that has these features, low profile, GPS encoding and high capacity memory cards.
I want a camera that is not too prominent and doesn't draw attention to the fact I'm using a camera. 
GPS encoding just in case I forget where I was. Since the eBike is my sole means of transportation, I'm riding all the time.
So a camera compatible with a high capacity card is needed. Because I equip my eBikes with high capacity battery packs,
I can use cameras with small internal batteries if there is a provision for an external power connection and draw off the main battery.

I'm hoping to keep it under $250. I use Apple computing products.

This Bias extends to the volunteering for non-profits and the Gig economy. Postmates confirmed directly to me they will not use Bikes and their intake process requires a driver's license.

Sometimes and on particular streets, during rush hour. Some drivers will block an intersection so completely I have to dismount to get through the intersection or wait for the blockage to clear.

Is it feasible to report these drivers.  If so how is it done and what information needs to be included.

On the whole this looks good, good suggestions and some new ideas.  However,  these tweaks will not solve the main problem it's self, Capmetro.  I've been a longtime rider, 16 years, and the reason using Capmetro sucks is they won't change the organization culture. There are numerous problems, deficiencies and voids in Capmetro's operations.  Probably the worst is their blithe indifference for the communities they are suppose to serve. I watched this 10 years as Capmetro steamrolled consultant recommendations in the disabled community. Remember the "fare adjustment", I attended these meetings and it was very apparent Capmetro had already decided what was going to happen and was going through the steps of outreach. In the most recent proposals is making proposals with the barest out reach.

I sent feedback to Capmetro from the webinar they had. I even proposed solutions for these long running biases.  However they are conspicuously silent.

This definitely something that will help you localize the bike but it's not GPS.
Also using Bluetooth locating is increasing dramatically in adoptance and with a little research you can get four medallions for the same price and you would use a free universal app to find the medallion.
