If the camera is positioned so that it can capture your number plate, then yes it can catch bikes. The trigger point on most cameras are set a little higher than the specified limit, but not 20mph.

30mph camera's are 9/10 set at about 36-38mph, if the flash didnt go off, its because its the camera i went past a few months back in leicester and someone had spray-painted over the flash hole, so if your lucky, it wont have picked up the number plate
