Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

My bike was in the alley, I was about 10 feet away in my yard, someone stole it.

I think the U-lock may have been compromised, or maybe I improperly locked it.

bike locked in front of Macy's, was gone when I left 5 hours later. Front wheel U-locked to frame over bike rack.

I went into the 7-Eleven on Diversey and Pine Grove for about 10 minutes to get a few items and left the bike right outside the front door unlocked. When I returned, the bike was gone.

Bike could have been stolen up to 1 week earlier. It was in a rear, gated area of the Crilly Court apartment complex where the lock was cut and the bike was stolen. I believe it was an inside job because it was in the middle of the complex and furthest away from the street where common a passer-by would be able to spot it. Thus, someone working or living inside the community likely took it.

Back porch of a friend's house. The porch has an entrance to the sidewalk...so people can see inside the back yard.

Someone over the weekend came and cut the cable and took both cable and bike

Bike was locked to a metal fence overnight, discovered missing at 8:45am. The fence was not compromised and the lock was not left behind.

Bike was locked to itself with trek U Lock Armored Series lock through the frame and front wheel. While not in use the bike was kept in the garage locked in this manner since May 2014

Bike was locked through both wheels and frame to city provided bike rack. 2900 N Lincoln in the early afternoon. Was in the shop for no more than 20 minutes and there was another bike locked to the same rack when I returned, albeit with a U lock.

Had locked the bike to a bike rack near Chicago union station at 11.30 am approximately and gone for an hour. Came back and found the bike completely missing. No traces.

The bike was likely the only one stolen out of the bike cage in our enclosed parking garage because it was one of the nicer bikes in very good condition. It was locked through the frame and both wheels so it was unlikely that they rode it out.

Bike was stored on the back porch of a third floor walk-up apartment. Porch area is located in an alley, and is not visible from the main road. Bike was not visible from the alley either. Looked out on porch and bike was gone. Cut cable lock was left behind. Incident likely occurred at night.

Our two bikes were stolen off of our enclosed porch. There is a locked heavy duty gate to get into the shared property, and then a locked door to get into the building (2 apartments). Our space seemed like a trusted area, we have two upstairs neighbors that are serious bike enthusiasts. The locks into the apartment were not broken/damaged. Thief did not take new U-Lock, helmet and bike pump.

Left my bike on my fire escape deck. People keep stuff like grills and chairs on the decks too. I was going to bring it inside, but I forgot it overnight and in the afternoon, I noticed it was gone. The back of the building is locked, and maybe two dozen people have access to it. Only a handful of people would have walked near the bike to see it was unlocked. Nobody says they know what happened.

Stolen from the Bike Room at the Shoreham Apartments: Looks like a big job, other bikes gone too
