NEW YORK, Feb. 24 (UPI) -- New York financial worker Michael Davis said that after his stolen bike was gone for six weeks, he was shocked to find it right around the corner.

The 26-year-old said he saw the bicycle chained to a pole around the corner from his apartment building on Friday, the New York Post reported.

"Lo and behold, there's my bike chained to a pole. It still had all the reflective stickers I had put on it," he said.

Police officers helped Davis free his bike after its new owner failed to return for their ill-gotten goods.

Davis says recovering the bike will force him to face a conversation he successfully avoided for the last six weeks.

"It was a brother's bike and I hadn't told him it had been stolen. Now I won't have to tell him," he told the Post. "Or I guess he'll find out now."
