Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I first realized the bike was missing at 7am 9/20. I had last seen it locked up at about 11pm the night before.

bike was stolen from rack at north east corner of building at 500 W Monroe, in the alley

Bike was in a locked garage. Garage service door was "jimmied" and bike was taken.

The bike was parked at the Metra Clyborn station on 2001 Ashland. It was locked through the front wheel as well as the frame of the bike. When I got off the train the bike, helmet, chains were missing.

I locked my bike outside my apartment. I couldn't take it to the second floor because I have a back injury. I locked it Sept. 28 around 3 p.m. the last time I saw it was that night around 10 p.m. by Sept. 27 around 8:30 a.m. the bike was gone. The lock was gone,too.

My wife had been out running errands on the bike and locked in front of 534 N Clark (Blue Chicago Bar) near where we live. 2 hours later she returned to ride it again and found the lock had been cut and the bike was gone.

I locked my bike to the fence outside my apartment and left it there overnight. In the morning it was gone as well as the lock.

Garage door facing alley was mistakenly not closed for 2 hours. When we returned, bike was gone.

The bike was locked at 37 S Wabash Ave, in front of one of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago's school buildings downtown. It was locked to the metal pole of a street sign in front of the entrance to the building at 9:00 am before class. The bike was still there when I left for evening class in another building. When I returned at 9:00 pm, the bike was gone, the street sign was still in place, but I noticed that the bolt that afixes the pole to the base was gone (I forgot to check before I locked the bike whether it was there when I locked up initially). When I reported the theft to a security guard at the school building, she said that about two hours prior, she had been outside the building and saw someone messing with the bike. She asked if it was his bike and he said that it was and he had forgotten the key.

I locked my bike to the bike rack at 350 N Lasalle in the morning. At 5:30 in the evening I went to retrieve it and it was gone.

Wife's bike and mine stolen out of garage. Thief had to come down side of garage and enter gate and garage.

Came down side of garage through a fence and into garage through a door to steal 2 bicycles. Left third bike and child's bike.

The bike was locked to a bike rack on the campus of the University of Chicago in front of the KCBD building, a site of frequent thefts. The lock was apparently cut or smashed on the numbers portion of the combination cable.

Two bikes were locked using a U lock in the alley behind 1969 N Halsted APT 3. For familiarity purposes, I live above a restaurant named Taco Joint on North Halsted and between that street and the next there is an ally for parking and residential entrances. I locked both bikes up on a post on Saturday night behind my apartment in the ally. One was my roommates a turquoise Mongoose bike, an another was mine an antique Nishiki brand single speed bicycle that was a cream tan color. The bike was an heirloom from my father. I went outside this afternoon to move the bikes and they were both completely gone. There was no sign of them anywhere. I asked the restaurant and they had not seen the bikes either.

Bike was on the side of my house in between 2 gates which are normally locked but could have been left unlocked. Stolen between midnight and 9am. Two of my neighbors bikes which were locked to the window of the house were vandalized as though the thief tried his damndest to steal them as well.
