I need to steal my own bike...

Nothing more from the OP so we can presume that he's been done for stealing his own bike.

Its clearly the only logical conclusion.

How do they prove it's not your bike?

Because you are hacksawing or using a bomb to explode the lock?

Rather than opening with a key like the normal fashion of an owned bike.

Hacksaw down the shed / lampost / gate that you attached it to.

I've got no proof my bike is mine, lost the receipt years ago. Say the policeman had literally been sat in his car watching me cut through the lock and start to ride away - how would I prove my innocence? I could phone my girlfriend or many one or two mates who would recognise the bike as mine - but then the policeman could say we were collaborating to steal the bike.

Or if I really was a bike thief, how do I convince the policeman to let me off scot-free!

Let the Police know BEFORE you cut the lock.

Hacksaw might do it, but u'll be there for a long time, other alternatives are:
lock smith, angle grinder.

or find a scoucer they'll do it in half the time of anything else

(sorry to all scoucers)
