Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

On May 7 at 5:10pm I returned home from an appointment at which point I brought my bike onto the back deck of my building. On May 8 at 4:45pm I walked outside to ride to dinner, but the bike was gone.

I came home around 2AM and locked it to my back porch. The porch is wooden. The person who stole it busted the wood to get it. My roommate said he heard commotion on the back porch sometime between 2:30AM - 3AM.

Was stolen from secure condo building garage . Thief cut the lock.

Bike was stolen from apartment building locked to back porch back of building to a thick 12 inch wood post

Not sure when it happened. It could have happen in any of the previous 4ish days previous to the time listed. I assume someone was let into the building who should not have been and then just walked out with it. Though I suppose a fellow resident could have taken it too.

The bike was locked on a pole sign directly in front of the JD Sports store. After about 40 minutes of trying on sneakers and coming out of the store the bike was missing with the lock. Nothing was there. Someone must have cut the cord in seconds and taken off with the bike and lock. I immediately saw that the store has a camera out front of their building where there would be clear footage of who the thief is.

Locked to bike rack on south side of Northwestern University Library around 8:00pm. Came out at midnight to find the bike and lock missing.

Bike locked on bike rack outside 2225 w North Ave. Went to an hour yoga class next door, came back and bike gone along with lock and helmet

The AirTag on my bike last checked in on 4/23/2024 at 5:08 pm. I did not notice the bike was taken until 1:55 pm on 4/30/2024. It seems an angle grinder was used to cut through the chain. Two of the ringlets were partially left behind. My partner's bike - the same bike - locked up in the same way, just a few feet behind mine was not touched.

Locked to bike rack through front tire (which was quick release), taken from location on Sunday 4/28/24 between 3:30pm and 8pm.

My bike was being stored under my back stairs. Someone would have to gain access to a locked gate, then walk all the way down the gang way to find it. I was not locked to anything, but sat right outside two back doors. My security camera shows the bike there at 6:32PM, but gone the next time it comes on at 8:34AM.

I locked my bike to the bike rack in front of the WeWork Bridgeview Bank location at around 12pm. When I returned to the bike rack around 3pm the bike was missing along with the lock.

Bike was left inside private garage, went missing between 9am and 1pm.

Last seen on 4/25/24 at 10:30 PM in garage (2 doors to get to bike). Stolen sometime between then and 4/25/24 at 3:00 PM. Could have entered and left through garage or front doors.

Someone entered our front gate, front door and went to the basement storage area and walked away with the bike.

My bike was parked in my parking spot in the alley, next to trash cans. While I went upstairs to get the key for my lock, I saw a blue truck pass by. I think the truck may have confused my bike for trash, since it was parked near trash cans. When I returned, the bike was gone.

Bike was parked in my parking spot in the alley. It was next to trash cans so I think a blue truck came by and mistook it for trash, picking up my bike.

Left my bike overnight in the biking spot. Next day it wasn't there

Bike was locked to itself at the bottom of staircase in a keyed entry building. The bike was not in view from the street. Video caught a white man with a beanie hat jump over the fence, pick up the bike and walk out.
