Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

The bike was enclosed in a storage basement area of the apartment building I live in. The only access to the storage basement is through the inside of the building by tannants. The access door to the outside rear of the building can only be opened from the inside. The only way for the bike to have been taken was from the inside of the building by another tennant. It was left for a couple hours while I unloaded belongings into my apartment that I just moved into in Rogers Park. Went back down, and discovered it was missing. For proof of ownership, I have all sales transaction information from Performance Bike on Halsted.

I last used my bike Sunday night 7/23/2017. It was locked to the bike rack in the parking garage connected to my residential building at 1225 N wells street Chicago IL 60610. I discovered it was missing Wednesday morning at 6:00am.

bikes were locked around a wall bike rack on back patio. bikes and locks were gone.

Bike was locked in bike room at 5419 South Harper Ave, Chicago, IL 60615 (Campus Court Apartments). Went to the bike room to get the bike and found the bike room door busted open and the doors leading to the outside of the building left open. Followed the open doors to the apartment gates which were also left open. Went back to confirm the bike was missing and only found the cut lock still hanging from the wall rack.

Taken from 3rd floor patio, not visible from anywhere else and behind locked (but shared) gates. Date is approximate, as I had just left for a two-week vacation (the plant-sitter noticed it gone in the first few days).

Bike was locked to adjacent bikes in the back patio (out of sight from street/sidewalk). The other two bikes shared a lock and those were not stolen and the third one that was stolen had its own lock and was locked to one of the other bikes. The lock was cut and left and the bike stolen.

Bike was locked to another bike and both bikes were locked to a metal rail that protects the window.

Thief broke into apartment and stole bike

Thief broke into apartment and grabbed bike from within

I went into my friend's apartment on a busy stretch of Ashland shortly after 7 pm and locked my bike on a street sign pole outside. When I return to my bike at 9:25, all I saw was my tire, still locked to the pole (with helmet locked in as well). I was in a hurry when I locked my bike, and must have accidentally locked just the wheel to the pole and not the frame without realizing it. The tire had been released and the frame taken. Another bike locked nearby seemed to have lost its wheel as well.
