Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

I parked in front of my job, I’ve been locking up to the bike rack in front of my job. I work at a Hyde park grocery store. I checked on my bike like an hour before and it was there and I didn’t see anyone near it really. I came out on my break at 3 and it wasn’t there anymore.

Bike was left unlocked near the bike rack in front of Lincolnwood Pool on Lincoln Ave. Bike was stolen on 6/19/2024 between 12pm-2pm. Last known location per airtag was near Peterson Park on Central Park and Peterson in Chicago.

The bike was being stored in an enclosed, gated courtyard. The bike rack that the bike was locked to was not visible from the back alley. Bike must have been stolen by someone who made their way into the courtyard or it must have been stolen by someone in the complex itself/associated with someone in the complex. Bike was locked through the back wheel and frame with a u-lock and cable through the front wheel to the left side of a bike rack. Last seen on 03/13/24 at 1pm. The bike was discovered missing on 03/29/24. Bike and lock were missing when found.

Sarah Flagg keeps her bike inside our garage. There is a cable looped through an electrical fixture and is run back through the front wheel and secured by an Abus U Lock. It is highly likely the lock and cable were in tact as the bike was carried off into the alley as our electric fixture is destroyed.

Tricycle was purchased in April. Back wheel was removed and handle bars rotated down to fit in car. Last week I stated working on fixing up bike. Lock was purchased to secure to building bike things. Tricycle was last seen at 4 PM on Saturday 15 June 24. The next morning I went to dump garbage ( 16 Jun 24) at 1:00 PM and bike was gone. I was on my way out to meet someone, but noticed an unlocked bike at the front door of my building. I returned home at 8:00 Pm on 16 June and bike was still unlocked at front door to building. I went to the garage and found the cut lock dumped and tossed.

My bike was stolen between 9 pm on the 14th and 10 am on the 15th. The last time we saw it, my dad was moving it into the bushes. The next morning it was gone. Our security cameras didn't capture the theft, but I believe the thief passed through my neighbor's yard. If you have any information or see someone riding this bike (Trek Mountain Track XC 830 RST), please contact me. This picture is only a reference photo, I unfortunately didn't take a picture of the full bike before it was stolen.

Bike was locked at the corner of Armitage and Mozart in Logan Square. It was stolen between 11:00 pm on 6/14/2024 and 1:15 am on 6/15/2024

I locked my bike to the bike rack on the westside of Ashland just north of the entrance to the UPWN Metra line at 6:40am. The seat and wheels have special locks to prevent being taken without a key. The lock was damaged but still intact. I discovered it stolen when I arrived back to the train station around 6pm.

Bike was locked in a bike rack inside a CTA station (Granville) locked along with another bike but when I came back only my bike was gone along with the lock.

Was moving this past weekend and had to move bike out of previous building’s storage - went back to get it and it was gone. residential bike rack was near corner of buttercup and Ainslie.

I was unfortunately very drunk and fell off my bike late on Sunday night, I think somewhere on Milwaukee headed north towards Armitage. When I fell I stupidly left my bike on the sidewalk unlocked and walked home. In the morning it was obviously nowhere to be seen as it was an easy snag for someone. I was acting stupid and put my own bike in danger but I love my bike and it's custom made and this was a huge mistake. I'm just trying anything I can to get it back. Thanks for your time.

[On 6/13/24, victim informed us that this bike had been recovered: "I completed a police report and Detective Jacob from the CPD called a few days later to say he had likely located it at a pawn shop at Lawrence/Kedzie via the serial number provided. He went and picked it up and took it to the 17th district for our pick-up.  He said the pawn shops are supposed to have a 30 day waiting period so this process can take place. Ironically (or maybe not),  my husband went to the same pawn shop the day prior and they denied having it.  We are very happy! Thanks!"] Bike stolen from detached garage.
