Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I parked it out front of a store at 4 PM, and last saw it through the shop window at around 6. When I left the store at 7:25, it was gone, along with the lock. The store security cameras may have footage of the thief, but they can't check them until a manager is in.

yesterday night it was locked in front of my building and today's morning it was gone.

Bike was locked to metal fence on parking lot of st. mary's hospital at 2222 west division(intersection with leavit). Very open area with good visibility and high traffic. Hospital cameras show thief standing by bike from 12:09-12:14 and some how opening lock. He then rode off west on Divison.

Sometime between ~11:00am and 8:00pm someone broke into the apartment and stole jewelry, computers, and this bike. This appears to be a typical thief looking to hawk the goods quickly for cash.

Bicycle saddle and seat post stolen outside the Kosciuszko Park Natatorium. Saddle was NOT locked.

Had my bike in the basement stair well of my girlfriend's apartment. Did not have it locked. Was stolen between 7pm and 10:30pm. Friend's bike was locked but had back wheel stolen at the same time.

I locked the bike up at 11:30 and went into Wrigleyville. I returned around 2:30 and the bike was gone along with the lock.

Just got home with some landscaping cargo. Emptied it and went inside for a few minutes with bike and trailer at curb in front of my home. Not my smartest move :( Five minutes later the bike was gone; I have evidence (discarded stuff from my milk crate carrier) that the thief went southbound (from Foster) down the alley that runs along Monticello and Central Park Ave. The bike and trailer and very distinctive-looking together, but the thief could easily detach the crate and trailer. I've never seen another one of these WIKE brand cargo trailers anywhere.

Bike was stolen from the locked basement of the apartment, only residents and landlords have key access to the basement.

I had an appointment on Tuesday, April 22 at 155 N. Wacker, but was late. So by 12:25p I had ridden downtown and locked my bike up. Because I was late, I wasn't paying full attention to where I locked it, but I'm 90% sure it was either outside of 7-11 on the corner of Franklin and Lake, or outside of CVS on the corner of Wells and Washington. When I went looking for it at about 3:45p, it was nowhere to be found. I proceeded to spend the next three hours systematically searching every nearby block corner for it, but did not succeed in finding it. Perhaps by some lapse of cognition I passed it by, but I believe I was thorough, especially when returning with my car.

The bike was in a locked garage. Someone busted through the side door of the garage and took the bike, leaving the garage door open.

Bike was locked in front of office building. Gone when I came out at the end of the day.

Bike was locked up on racks outside Jacobs Center at Northwestern University. Lock was missing along with bike.

bike was in the parking rack in front of the Mount Prospect library. It was placed in the rack around 3:30 and discovered missing at 6:30 pm.

Had it on my back porch.

A young male and female were looking at a desk that our neighbors had thrown away in the alley. I was arriving back from a doctors appointment, pulled into garage and closed the garage before I had exited car. When I came back an hour later to leave the garage door was wide open and our two bikes were stolen. I imagine they either jumped in the garage as I closed the garage door or I out of habit pressed the garage door button (when I left the garage) and it opened back up for them to enter and steal bikes.

I left my bike in front of where I am working and went around to unlock the front door. As I came out I saw someone booking it north on my bike with my backpack. Chsed him a few blocks before I lost track of him in an alley. Incident happened at agusta and fairfield, followed him north west a few blocks.

Girlfriend pulled bike out of garage to get her car out and forgot to put bike back in. Happened at the back of condo building that shares a back area with two other apartment/condo buildings in East Lakeview. Bike was leaning against neighbors garage door, unlocked from noon. Hoping that a neighbor saw it and put it away for safe keeping but we're not holding our breath
