Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

Ed note-- city bike program contacted-- response: they're "looking into it", already reported 3 times today (July 9).

bike was stolen over the weekend from my storage locker

Locked it through the wheel and frame on michigan avenue while I went to work in the taste of Chicago. Checked on it at about 1 or 2 and took the seat with me, because I was afraid someone might take that. Came back out around 8pm or 9 and it was gone. It was right across from the horse statues at grant park. lock was gone.

Stolen out of common basement area

I left July 2nd, when I was leaving on the morning of July 7th, I noticed the bike was gone. My landlord had noticed it earlier, but it could have happened any one of those days between.

Bike was locked in garage while I was working. It was stolen in broad daylight in a fairly busy area. If anyone has any information please contact me.

Locked around a tree overnight. Stolen between 10pm and 10am. Not a very valuable bike. I only paid $75 for it, but it was very unique and I would love it back.

1960's German road bike. Orange in color. new brakes.

Bike was stolen sometime between 1:00 PM and 6:00 PM on July 7th 2009.

The bike was locked up at the Metra station under the bridge using a snake/cable lock. When returning from work, the bike was gone. This area is not heavily trafficked except when people are entering/leaving the train station.

The bike was stolen from a 3rf floor, back, balcony. I returned home around midnight and the bike was there, my roomates wake up around 6am and they said the noticed the bike was missing.

Bike was stolen from my backyard in the from late evening to early morning.

Stolen off my back porch in full daylight while I was either home or nearby running errands (getting coffee, walking the dog...). Granted, my bike was not locked up or inside on the day of the theft, which ultimately means I facilitated the robbery. Strange, though, that I live on the second floor, that my back door was wide-open all day, and my bike wasn’t visible from the alleyway... also there is a metal gate that is closed but not locked. Cell phones were on the back porch table and they weren't lifted.

Bike was left overnight in my vehicle in private residential driveway of friend's house(long walk in from street). Three other bikes taken from friend's garage in same incident. Taken sometime between 1 am - 4:15 am July 6, 2009.

There are a lot of bikes there and someone figured I had one of the circular u-locks which apparently are easy to hack. Took my bike when no one was watching. I would assume people steal bikes here often.

Left outside my office which has building security. THought it would ok in the bike rake since it appears the building had outward cameras. bike secured to bike through front wheel and frame. When i came out to get my bike after a few hours. The lock had been broke on one side (ONguard mini pitbull) and the cable was cut.

Was left at 10am when I went to work and when i arrived at the milwaukee blue line it was gone

My bike was stolen from in front of NU Law school while I was in class.

i am a resident physician at northwestern, i lock my bike to the same bike rack every morning in front of the galter entrance at 5:45 am, every day, today i get out of work, at 5:30 pm, bike is gone, no lock, no sign of a struggle, its my only means of transport, who steals a bike from a hospital??!!

the bike in the picture is what my bike looks like. that is not my bike however. My seat is raised to fit a 6'5" individual. And it had a soft seat cover plus a brand new grip shift on the right handlebar.
