Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I went into a store in the local, a store that I frequent often, to make some purchases. I was in there no longer than about 15mins. I've always parked my bike inside of the store, near the front door unlocked because I'm always only in there a short time. This time I wasn't so lucky because someone must have been watching me while I made purchases at the counter. When I went to exit the store, I saw my bike was gone. I went outside and asked some gentlemen that were standing out there if they saw anyone walk out with it, of course their answers were "no".

Bike was locked in bike rack at Monroe and Columbus outside the entrance of the Taste of Chicago.

My bike was locked outside while I was eating dinner at a restaurant. I came outside and there was no evidence that the bike was ever there; no lock, no damage to bike rack. Shouldn't have relied on cheap cable lock.

We just moved in and are still organizing things in the apartment where I intended to keep it. I had left my bike in the garage thinking it'd be safe to keep for a day or two. I just fell off it the day prior since some dude didn't see me while he was turning, so I walked to the Metra stop today instead of biking. I think it was still in the garage as of at least 7am today since my girlfriend remembers seeing it when she drove off. This probably isn't making the most sense but I'm pretty frantic right now and I think you get the gist. What probably happened is someone left the garage door open and saw it there prime for the picking. Filling out police report first thing tomorrow morning.

The bike was locked in a sidewalk next to Millennium Park. When the bike was locked to the bike rack, there was just 1 bike there. And when we went back and the bike was not there, there were 3 bikes locked to the rack.

Bike was stolen out of locked garage between Sunday night and Tuesday in the middle of the day. There were many other bikes in the garage which were not stolen.

Bike was locked with hundreds of others at Wavefront Concert on Montrose beach. Where was security?!

Bike was in my apartment entrance while I was home. Theieves came into the hallway and took this and another bike (Chrome Ross Mt. Whitney).

Somebody jumped the closed gate on the back yard and stole 2 bikes. Humboldt Park. N Rockwell Street.

Left my bike at the corner of Wrightwood and Burling St at 1 am. Kryptonite Series 2 U-locked to bike rack and ABUS Cable locked to back wheel & frame. Returned to bicycle at 3:30 am to find nothing but the Kryptonite U-Lock cut and left on the floor.

Bike stolen while i was at work.

Bike was stolen from off of my 2nd floor porch while I was inside my apartment. Waiting on security footage from the Jewel security cameras that over look the porch/apartment area.

I locked up my bike as I got to work at 311 S Wacker on the north west corner bike racks. When I came back in the afternoon the bike was gone.

Sadly, just stolen

Bike was locked to bike rack in common garage of condo building. Front wheel and frame were locked to bike rack with new U-Lock. Rear wheel was locked to frame with a separate new U-Lock. Both locks were Kryptonite. The scumbag(s) who stole my bike used either a pipe cutter or hacksaw to dismantle the bike rack. It is clear the strategy was to destroy the rack rather than invest time breaking the locks. Multiple bikes were stolen from the garage as they destroyed 2 separate bike racks and clearly went after the high dollar value targets.

Bicycle was locked to a fence in a private courtyard at 10:30 pm on Sunday night. The fence is not visible from the street and the bike was concealed underneath trees. The bike had been cut off from the fence before 7:00am on Monday morning. The fence was damaged and cut open. No evidence of the U-lock.
