Vancouver police report that they seized $60k in drugs, and a loaded gun after stopping a no-helmet cyclist
A man was arrested after being found with a loaded gun and thousands of dollars worth of drugs in Vancouver.
The cyclist was riding on the sidewalk, and ran a red light (a bit more justified to flag him down). He fled, eventually ditching the bike and fleeing by foot.
I hope the police didn't screw up by performing an unjustified search.

Only break one law at a time.

Seems so obvious. If committing major crimes, maybe don't give cops a reason to hassle you by committing silly minor crimes.

I never trusted a no-helmet

Either he panicked, didn't have the nerve to just take the ticket and act normal, he was known to police, or (this is the most likely when you hear stories like this) someone talked and this is a cover story for the informant, the cops set up a situation to force probable cause.
