SACRAMENTO (AP) - Sacramento police have recovered Lance Armstrong's stolen bicycle.

Officers say a local resident brought the custom bike worth about $10,000 to police headquarters yesterday morning.

The Trek Livestrong 1274 was taken after Armstrong used it during Saturday's time trial before the first stage of the Tour of California.

Two other bikes belonging to Armstrong's teammates were also taken. There's no word from police on whether they're still missing.

Officers say they won't discuss how the resident came into possession of Armstrong's bicycle because of the ongoing investigation.
