My question is not 'How could he steal 200 cycles in a day?', but 'How could
he sell 200 bikes in a day, without raising questions?'. Something should be
done about the fences that he sold to.

God, he looks like a really sad dweeb!

I don't think he did, going by the description of him as: "A prolific
bike thief who stole up to two machines every day".

And did he steal up to these two bikes from behind? So as not to alert
them beforehand.
