Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

Bike was in a gated parking pad, in a shed with heavy duty keyed padlock. I found the lock missing, shed and gate open this morning close to noon. There is a second bike in the shed, but only one was taken. Either someone was hoping to get lucky opening a random shed, or had seen me store the bike in there.

the downstairs neighbors left a door unlocked that goes into the storage room where there were at least ten different bikes. The their came in through that door some time in the night and took my girlfriends Trek. The person must have been going house to house looking for unlocked doors because the back door isn't easy to spot.

Have not filed a report yet

Thieves most likely had huge wire cutters, there was a mark where they had initially tried to cut the lock then a second where they had successfully cut it. most likely at 2 or 3 in the morning. Frame was worth 300 dollars at least so thieves may have known the value of the bike given there was a second bike (a Sole cruiser) that was worth 400 beside it that was not cut that also had a u lock.

I locked my bike to the fence in front of the iGo Car spot at Pottawattomie Park on Rogers Ave. while I had the iGo Car rental to run a couple errands. When I returned with the car, the bike was gone.

I parked and locked my bike right outside of my office building on Monday morning right before 9am. When I came down at 6:30pm, the frame and back tire were gone. They left the front tire that was locked to the bike rack. (Older U-lock with round key) Thank you!

After a party I simply forgot to lock the bike. It was standing in my backyard which is pretty open to the alley.

Bike was stored in an interior hallway landing and it appears the perp came thru a window from a neighboring rooftop and took the bike along with another bike of mine!

Placed bike behind garbage can at 711. Went to use ATM. Returned less than a minute later and bike was gone.

Bike was stored in apartment hallway and it looks as if someone crawled thru a window from a neighboring rooftop and took the bike

Possibly the garage door was left open while a resident was taking out garbage or simply forgot to close the door for some period of time and the bike was removed from the garage.

Vintage bike was locked to a pole just outside the Red Line Berwyn Stop. The closest streets are Broadway and Berwyn. I left the bike for a few days and found it missing including the lock. This bike is usually not desirable as it is old and one has one speed. It's a very large, black one speed bike, called a Gazelle.

Thief was able to get my electric garage door open and took all three bikes that were up on bike racks but locked to themselves. (Older U-locks with round keys) There was no way to ride any of the bikes and I suspect they were all throw on the back of a truck or van and driven off. The Scattante was the most valuable of the three. My wife's old bike was a blue mountain bike with flat tires, and locked. My kid's bike had flat tires, is white with orangish tires and it too was locked but taken.

The bike appeared to be stolen along with the lock. I assume they broke the lock and took the bike as well.

Fell asleep with bike in the yard unlocked. Yard is secured with a tall fence. Thief used plastic crates to scale fence then removed two fence boards to allow egress. I never recorded a serial #.

Bike was locked to street sign and sign was ripped out of ground. Bike taken.

Business was closed. I was working inside. Noticed it was gone at 2am. Last person to notice it still there was at 11pm. Sign was unscrewed, lifted and the bike was removed. With the Kryptonite u-lock and cable still attached.
