Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

The bike was left at the side of the house by a 9 year old boy who loved it. The whole family was home, and in the back yard. It was stolen in broad daylight from under our noses.

Was placed in our basement which is accessable from the backyard after returning from vacation. Was unlocked for about 5-6 hours and was stolen. 2 other Bikes remained.

Stopped in to Starbucks around 11am, was not gone more than 5 or 10 minutes with the bike remaining in view most of that time. Went to leave store, bike was gone. The end.

While inside my apartment the thief walked from the alley in between two buildings up the back stairs onto the 2nd floor deck to and took the bike. I do have a video of the thief with a clear picture that could be used to identify the culprit. I really hope I find this bike.. any help would be appreciated!

Think thief used freon to freeze off lock. Got wife's bike too.

Think someone froze locks and stole the bike. Got my husband's too.

The bike was sitting in a friend's back yard as we prepared it for a BBQ. They went inside to shower and get ready, I was setting up the rooftop deck, and came back down to the yard half an hour later to find the gate open and the bike gone.

Recently moved. Two mountain bikes - one blue male, one green female were double cabled through the back porch railing. Bikes stolen, no cut lock found. Green bike has flowery details and a small black under the seat pouch. Blue bike has a bike lock holder under the seat.

Bike was locked to two large cinder-blocks under stairs at front of building behind an unlocked, inner glass door and a locked, outer glass door. I locked it up around 8:00 or 9:00 pm and in the morning discovered it missing. Called cops but no one ever showed.

The bike wasn't locked for long, less than two hours. I believe the thief cut the lock or chain, possibly others chained to the same metal fence, and may have driven away with it. There were many people around that may have witnessed the event- the AMC theater is close by and there's a ton of foot traffic in the area.

LEFT BIKE SOME POS TOOK IT

Bike was stolen sometime between 3pm-6pm at the Taste of Chicago on Friday July 3rd. The bike was locked up with another bike onto the bike rack at the NW corner of Columbus and Monroe. It was right in front of a security camera, so there is footage of the culprit stealing the bike. They cut the cable lock, stole the 7100 and did not take the other bike.

Bike was left hidden in bushes along a wooded ravine path to the shore of Lake Michigan. Several young people, aged ~16 - 25, were seen leaving the Lake front walking up the path, presumably to their parked car at the top of the ravine. Bike was not visible from nearest street. People that park near this path to the lake shore do not have a Lake Bluff village sticker and are trying to avoid paying to get down to the beach and parking illegally. Someone leaving the lake front probably picked the bike out of the bushes on their way up to their car and drove off with it.

I park my bike here often. Someone may have noticed it days earlier. Probably happened during 4th of July fireworks. Bummer :-(

Bike was locked with both a cable lock and U-lock to a bike rack. Locks were probably cut.

After coming home from a ride, I left my bike at the base of our rear apartment stairs. Previously, I had no issues with TEMPORARILY leaving my bike there for under 2-3 hours. The bike was not in street view at all. However, this time the bike was stolen from someone passing through our alleyway.

We viewed theif cut the cable lock, casually replace lock and cutters in backpack, and ride away. He was chased from Lakeshore Athletic Club into the Taste of Chicago and lost. His description: short, black, not fit or thin but roundish build.

I had already carried my bike up to my apartment twice yesterday, so I left it locked outside to a small tree outside my apartment while I met some friends. When we came back around Midnight, about 4 hours later, it was gone, but the combination lock was still there. I'd only had it about a week, it's a bright pink Magna mountain bike, and it might be a child's sized, I'm not sure. I have a picture, but it is only on my phone and I can't get it uploaded to my computer for some reason.

I left my bike for a moment to go pick up my husband; it was inside my yard while my son and his 3 friends played. The boys went right inside the door for a moment and heard something outside and saw them driving it down Devon. The driver could have been Asian.

Was jumped / beat up / bike stolen at around 3am by a group of guys.
