Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I work for a delivery service and I left my bike outside of a client's business (located at Chicago ave and Damen) for less than three minutes and when I left the business it was gone.

Went to Grafton's pub for some burgers. My bike, along with my friend's bike, were locked together and to a U-rack right on Lincoln in full view of several bar patios. There was also a concert going on at a Folk Music center right where the bikes were locked. Came back after eating, and they were gone. The other bike was a small Giant racing bike for a 5'2" rider. We asked around at the patios, including two women who were dining right next to them, but no one saw anything. A report of a "large, black SUV" from one witness that had pulled up and seemed suspicious in her mind, but they didn't see the bikes taken. I think it was a professional job. The location of the incident was a safe and family-friendly area on a beautiful day. Also a good location to find lots of very expensive bikes, since it's an affluent area. My friend had bought her bike only three hours before the incident.

We have a secure, secluded yard with high fences and buildings on 3 sides. Porch not visible from alley as coach house completely blocks access. Gate to yard is accessible by short alleyway directly to Chicago ave. I rode home after midnight, unlocked and relocked our gate, and carried my bike up to our 3rd floor porch, where I locked it to itself and placed it leaning against a dark wall and behind a large chair. In the morning, our gate door was open and my bike was gone. Not sure if I was followed home or if someone just broke in looking for stuff in general and found my bike when they made their way up to our porch.

Sometime the weekend of the 9th of June (during midsommerfest) the bike was stolen from my apartment building's community bike storage. The area has a locking gate facing the street and is open to the back alley.

We discovered the bike was missing at 10 p.m. We last checked it at 8:00-8:15 and it was still there. It was parked at the bike rack just north of Berenice Ave on east side of Lincoln.

Bike was parked behind a locked fence in a garden unit leaning next to a bench. Fence was probably hopped and the thief must have exited through the door

Bike was stolen inside of Dominicks by the carts. Dominick's refused to view surveiellance footage for some reason.

Bike was noted to be still there and locked to fence at 3:30 am, I got up to ride it this morning at approximately 7:30 am and it was missing.

Parked/locked-up bike at 2:30AM on 6/15/13 near church and parking lot on bike rack that was on the sidewalk.

Locked my bike up across the street from Trader Todd's and it was gone when I returned.

My bike was stolen from the front of the Landmark Century movie theater in Lincoln Park. My keys were missing from my bag, which I discovered when I exited the the theater. My bike was missing from the bike rack. I believe I may have been pickpocketed, and my keys were used to unlock my bike.

I rode my bike to the Glenview, IL downtown train station. Locked the bike to the bike rack around 6:30 AM. When I returned that evening on the Metra, the bike was no longer on the rack. There were lots of other bikes, but mine was missing. Report was filed with Glenview police.

I think that the bike may have been confiscated by Chicago streets and sanitation. If anyone has information regarding a city number I can call that would be great! {CSBR has suggested calling the city's 311 center}

I usually bring my bike up to my office, but was planning on only being in for a few hours so I left it out front. Cable was through front wheel and then U-locked frame and rear wheel to bike rack. Cable was stolen along with white Bell helmet (BMX style)

The bike was last seen at approximately 0600 on 6/02. Sometime after that and before 1430 on 6/05 it was stolen. Other bikes in the neighborhood were also reported stolen around this time.
