Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

Bike was locked within a gated court yard. Part of the fence was pulled back to gain entry and the bike removed by same access.

We had two very similar bikes next to each other, only the girl bike was taken.

Bike was locked to a pole while I entered Star Lounge for coffee. 15-20 minutes later I emerged to find my bike gone and lock cut.

My son's bike is kept on my balcony/porch which is enclosed and locked as well as within my gated building. Someone came through the locked gate of the building and had to climb up my balcony to take the bike from my semi-enclosed porch.

The bike was locked up for literally 10-15 mins as we took a walk around Oak Street beach looking for a spot to sit down. Came back no longer than 15 mins to grab a hotdog at the stand and it was gone.

I had my bike locked inside a tall iron gate. Thief used garbage can to jump gate and take the bike.

Bike was inside of a locked, alarmed warehouse. Was left behind the afternoon of 7/22 and was not there as of 7am on 7/23. Still figuring out details of how alarm system was defeated.

My bike was sitting on my 3rd-level porch on the rear of a building. There is another building that completely blocks the view of my porch from the street, so the only way anyone could have known there was a bike was if they were on the porches of adjacent buildings.

The bike was kept in the shed of our back yard in Lakeview. The day of the theft was the pride parade and there were several people in the neighborhood. While doing work in the shed, I went inside to take care of my children. I returned outside after approximately 30 minutes and the bike was missing from the shed.

Bike was left from Friday late afternoon through early Sunday morning. I had it locked with an older Kryptonite lock through the frame, back tire and around the pole. It also had a wire chain from the lock through the front tire. They got me with the missing screw at the base trick. I'd been totally unaware. This is a totally unique bike... I do not have the serial number but, to my knowledge, the furniture showroom I work for was the only IL retailer for BioMega. This is a totally unique bike...

Suspect stolen by passerby who came to explore from alleyway.

Bike was left in the common shared bike area in the building basement on the bike rack unlocked at 12:30am on 7/22. Building is secured and locked during the night. Returned to where the bike was left at 10:30am to discover it missing. No history of break-ins or theft in the building whatsoever. Hired contractors have been doing work on the building interior/exterior and have had access to the basement for the past 1-2 weeks, potentially leaving the basement unlocked/prone to theft.

Bike was in closed garage behind my house, the bike was not secured with a lock. Someone entered from alley, climbed back fence to enter garage through the side door. Then opened garage door and left with bike. We left house around 3 PM. Neighbors saw open garage door around 4 or 5 PM.

Bike was inside of building

Cable still there. Three other bikes and trailer left untouched. No other clues that I can see.

Bike was gone from it's locked location on 1621 W. Wabansia

Bike front wheel was locked to sign, with cord locking the back wheel to the U-lock. Cord was cut and front wheel removed from bike. Picture below is the model of bike.

I had a U-lock with a cable roped through the front and back tire. I must have locked the U-lock and the cable to the bike rack, but did not lock the actual bike frame to the rack. I left my bike approx. 6:45 am, and after return from work at 5:30p.m the bike was stolen.

I was at work across the street for 6 hours. It was there at noon and gone by 5pm.
