Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

My bike was stolen Sunday from North Ave. Beach. It was a very crowded day there and my bike was locked up in a crowded area with a Kryptonite Series 2 lock. Not sure how the thief stole it with so many people around. Anyway, it's a black Felt Brougham. There are no decals on it. Its all black except for the front plate of the stem which is cyan. The front wheel is also painted matching cyan. The rear wheel is black with white spokes and a thickslick tire. The pedals are white and they have red Burro straps on them. It has a black Turbo saddle.

Stolen from private garage

I walked into the Wiener Circle in Lincoln Park, it was 20 feet away and I could see it from where I was in the restaurant. After I ordered, I went back outside and it was gone.

After biking to work at the bakery this morning I locked the bike up tight. When I checked the bike half way through my shift and the bike was gone without a trace.

Left bike there to eat at Giordano's. On the corner of Michigan Ave. and Lake St. in front of CVS Pharmacy

a man walked by and cut the cable and continued south

Ed note- victim left bike unlocked while running into convenience store. Had little memory of incident or other details of that evening.

Not much to it. It was taken between 2:00am and 7:00 am on June 27th. When I go to my girlfriend's house I stupidly place my bike under the stairs in front of her garden unit apt, unlocked. It's mostly blocked from the view of passersby, but not entirely. It was only a matter of time. I was careless, I know, and it's definitely a learning experience.

Bike was in garage. Thief removed window screen and forced window open. Grabbed bike (no other items stolen) and exited through door.

My bike was locked to tree in front of Hair cuttery in Greektown for approx 30 minutes. I was getting my haircut when the lady said someone was stealing my bike as she had saw me pull up infront of the store on it. I looked outside as he was putting his lock cutter in backpack and taking off on my bike. I ran out of store with haircut cape still on and was very close to getting him, hes lucky for now.

Bike was locked through the frame, front wheel, and fork. Whoever stole it had a 15mm wrench/other tools to get the forks off of the wheel and disassemble the bike enough to get it off the rack. The front wheel and u-lock were left locked to the rack, the nuts were on the pavement. I left the house at 8:05 am and it was there. My roommate got home around 6 and said it was gone.

Left bike in covered garage while at work on Dayton Ave next to British School. Returned to garage the lock was cut and left

Stolen between 9a.m. and 11.am on 6/26/2013. My room mate's girlfriend left the place at 9am and reported seeing the bike at that time. My room mate brought his bike inside around 7 or 8 and said

Parked in front of office on Wacker. Got pinched sometime before 5pm on Friday

Parked bike in garage at about 0815 pm 6/22/13 and discover it gone on 6/22/13. Did not find door open so do not know if opener was set off by accident at some time or if theft happened by side door from inside condo. That door has a lock and it was not broken and locks when closed automatically. It was locked. Bike was not locked to anything inside the garage. I have only been in the city 3 weeks and did not think I needed to lock bike inside a locked garage.

Bike was locked with a kryptonite U lock through frame and bike rack with a cable attached to U lock going through front tire. Bike was located on a bike rack near what looks like a receiving bay on Monroe at the Art Institute of Chicago. There were surveillance cameras, but we have not seen the tape.

Bike was in an enclosed gated locked backyard in Humboldt Park, the house is located near Campbell & Hirsch. Suspect jumped the 7ft. gate from the Alley side and was able to access back yard and then left premise with the bike. Bike was in an unsecured garden level gangway leading to a rear entrance of the house.

The bike, due it the long free radical rear end, was locked parallel with parked cars and between the parked cars and the sidewalk. It's likely that someone cut the cable lock discretely between the bike rack and the parked cars.
