Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I rode my 2011 locked the rear wheel and frame to a bicycle rack on the east side of the Performing Arts building of UIC, near the intersection of Harrison and Morgan St. I went inside the building from 5:30 p.m.-9:30 p.m. on Tuesday May 6, 2014. When I came back to retrieve it, someone had taken both the front fork and front wheel. In order to do this, the person must have had both a wheel wrench and an allen wrench. The front fork is a Trek T1 original carbon fiber fork, black with a small light blue design on both sides. The wheel was an original black Bontrager wheel with black spokes. The tire on the wheel was a Fixation Session 23c.

Purchased bike day before, had not set up lock. Was on porch, behind a locked gate. Disappeared between 8:30 when I left for work, and 12:30ish when my roommate came home and noticed both our bikes were stolen.

In Ace Hardware for 5 mins. Poof..... gone.

The thieves took only the handlebar clamp and my handlebars and front basket. Although the handlebars and clamp are annoying, I am mostly missing my basket. It is a black PDW takeout basket with a handsome wood detail on the front

Bike was stolen from 3rd floor back deck sometime between 2am and 9am Sunday. Front and back gate were locked. Bike would not have been visible from back alley, so the thief probably came looking for whatever could be stolen and didn't target the biked specifically. Another unlocked bike was not taken.

It was locked up on the morning of May 5th and was stolen sometime between around 9 am and the next day. Most likely overnight or early morning.

Had my birthday party at the bar next door, and the next day, after I was all suited and ready to head off to work, I notice that my bike was no longer locked to the fence on our front porch.

Bike was locked outside of my apartment to the front gate around 1:00pm on Saturday, May 3rd. I was in and out of the apartment running errands all day until returning to my apartment at 2:00am on Sunday, May 4th, the bike was still there locked to the gate. When leaving my apartment at 9:30am on Sunday, the gate was cut and the bike was gone. So the range of possible times of theft is from 2:00am-9:30am on Sunday, May 4th.

My son's bicycle was in front of our apartment on the 2nd floor with a common balcony. two suspects were seen about 14-15 years in age , very possible local, from the same area - one white wearing a light tone hooded shirt / jacket and another one dark skinned Hispanic who ran fast into the alley south of Grand Ave (Grand Ave and Julian - across the River Grove library)

Door to garage must not have been pulled completely to locked position. Door was wide open in morning and bike was gone.

Locked my bike at six outside of The Theatre School at DePaul, walked back to my dorm around 10 PM without it, and around 1:30 when I went to go retrieve it, it was gone like it was never there.

The bike was not locked to its frame. Therefore, the bike was stolen by removing the front wheel. So, bike is missing its front wheel.

Left bike locked through frame and tire to a bike rack outside of the clybourne metra train station on ashland, returned 12 hours later to find it missing with a suspicious person messing with my boyfriend's bike.

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.
