'Laughing at police'
But Mr Foster said he was appalled by what he was told by the officers.
"They said: 'If they haven't got a helmet on, we can't pursue them. We can't risk a law suit. We'd get sued if they fell off and hurt themselves,'" said Mr Foster.
"I can't believe it, to tell the truth, because all the bike thieves know that, so that's what they do and they're laughing at the police. They've found a loophole in the law that means they can do exactly what they want."
crime doesn't pay... well it didn't used to, I'm not so sure now
