Then, the owner could have a "link" to the chip and look on the internet to see exactly where his/her bike is sitting/moving at any given time on a computer enhanced map. ------ If I can chip my pet dog, we should be able to develop the same for high end bikes. The bike shops can have the scanners (like the vets do) and some firm can maintain the registry for a small fee. Cops are probably not that interested, so it would have to grow from the ranks of enthusiasts.
