Throughout 1984, Bevan worked with the Optimists and together they came up with the "ike Back Sticker" prograni. The Optimidsts would provide not only the funds but also the manpower to get this prograxn started, but also côznmittee themselves to maintain it into the future. And since its inception in 1985 it has developed into a successful, and quite revolutionary, crime prevention program, but only possible when the police work hand in hand with the public.ý Here's how it works: The owner of a bicycle obtains a registration form, which, properly filled out, gives a full description of the bike, its serial number, the owners name and address and phone number. The completed form is then taken to the police station where an officer will issue a numbered sticker to the registrant. The registrant will also get a copy of the registration formn, for his or her own records, with the sticker number added. The owner now attaches the sticker to the vertical bar of the bicycle frame just beow the seat and. facing the front. Bike registration forma can be picked Up at regional police stations in Bowmanville,, Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax or Pickering. By the way, if you take the complete information on the bike with you, you can then I out the form at the station. Otherwise, fil the form out at home and then return it for a sticker. Later on, if you seil your registered bike, make sure the new owner re-registers the bike so records are kept'Up to date.
