I think this is a great idea, not only for tracking a stolen bicycle. I frequently ride alone, much to the discomfort of my friends. When I go any further afield than my local area, I have a friend whom I notify and I give him my route and my ETA home. Then I let him know I've arrived home safely. He is always willing to fetch me if I have a mechanical. But…if something were to happen to me and I was unable to call, he wouldn't know until I failed to arrive home. And he would have a large geographical area to search, with no way of knowing where I was. I have MySOS installed on my phone but I don't use it – always seems too much of a faff. A simple tracker like this that someone could check in on from time to time would be a great way of keeping single riders safe. Obviously if one is attacked, it's not going to help, but if, say, one is hurt and not moving, this would be apparent. This might be something 3bo.mobi wants to consider – giving the device a dual purpose, such as a crash detector.
