For those who have recently had their bike stolen, well there may be a silver lining - you could be helping someone in need.
A new initiative between Bike Auckland and the Auckland City District Police will see bikes recovered by the police distributed to those in the community who can't afford one.
Bikes will be eligible for the scheme if they haven't been claimed within three months.
Gabriel Gati from Bikes Auckland explains the scheme to Jesse .
