Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

The lock was not unlocked or broken. It is a new kryptonite u-shape lock with a flat key. It was mangled a little, but totally in tact. They must have sawed through the bike to get it off. There were some scratches on the cross bar of the lock that looks like something was scraping it repetitively (like it was in the way of sawing). My helmet was locked up with the bike and it too was mangled some. It looks like some one tried to crush it. Sorry for the bad picture. It's the only one I have.

The cable lock was cut and they took off with the bike and the lock at some point during the work day (between 9am and 3:30 pm) on Monday July 18th. The bike frame is all pink and it says Diamondback on the side of the frame.

I rode to the beach between North Avenue and Fullerton Beach. At about 4:30 pm I locked my bike to the rack along with my friends bike. The lock was a cable with a pad lock and was locked between both our tires and to the rack. At about 6:00 pm I walked to the rack and only saw my friends bike which was pushed onto other people's bikes and there was the cut cable on the ground.

Someone must have cut the two u locks on my bike and stolen it. It was locked by Lincoln park zoo on Fullerton ave during the middle of the afternoon.

Bike stolen from enclosed/protected yard on a Saturday afternoon.

bike was in garage while we were going in and out of garage unloading car for ~ 45 minutes. Overhead door was open. Photo is not of my actual bike, but frame is exactly the same.

I locked my bike on the rails at north avenue beach just outside bike and roll. there were at least 100 other bikes along the same railing. I went jet skiing, came back in 2 hours, and my bike was gone. my bike was also locked with my friends bike. both bikes and the lock were gone. her bike is also a road bike. it is a white blue and red trek.

Left the bike out overnight, check on it at about 10/11 am the next morning, lock was cut and left behind, no trace of the bike.

My car was parked on North Ave. I had my bike in the back seat. At some point between 2-10am, my car was broken into and the bike was stolen.

Bicycle was U-locked to a street sign. The sign post was found unbolted after the incident.

Bike was left in driveway at 8:15 AM, returned 45 minutes later and it was gone.

Bike was locked to the fence outside the Jesse Spaulding School. Had a Kryptonite lock cut. Looked like the lock was cut with some sort of power tool because the cut was very clean, and not done with a hack saw. Bike was stolen during pitchfork, I heard there was a truck going around stealing bikes but nothing was done to stop the truck. There could be many more similar reports. Lots of loitering individuals in the neighborhood as well.

I parked it on a side street across from the Den Theatre. It was the only bike locked to the sign (i was so excited to find bike parking...but in hindsight I would have been better off locking it up with other bikes...). Came out of the show at 2 and there was no sign of it. :(

I was with my friend Mark. We rode our bikes to see Harry Potter 4:15 p.m. show. Our bikes were locked together with front wheel and frame to a steel fence directly in front of steps going up to theatre doors. When the movie was finished, we came outside and discovered that our cable combo lock was cut, my bike was stolen, while my friend's bike was still there against the steel fence.

Went into CVS for a Minute Clinic appointment. Locked bike next to parking meter box, to a bike rack steel U pole bolted to ground. Wrapped lock through front and rear wheels and frame to pole. Removed all accessories except for mounts described above. Appointment lasted for about an hour and a half. After appointment was over, came to discover bike was gone and no evidence of lock was found. Asked CVS and Jewel Osco (directly across from the CVS on Southport) if they have cameras pointing out to the area I parked my bike and they said they do not have cameras pointing in that direction.

Stolen from street sign between 9:30 p.m. and 2 a.m. Thursday evening. Street sign physically removed from the ground to take bicycle. Absolutely devastated. Please please help!

Bike was stolen directly out of my garage between 3pm-4pm on July 14. Suspect then rode it over to On The Route Bikes on Lincoln Ave. to fill up tires and the bike was quickly recognized since they work on it. Suspect knew he was in trouble and fled on the bike. OTR mentioned suspect has been in before to buy small stuff so they have no record. It is believed suspect is in Lakeview area.

I locked the bike up in front of my dance studio at 6:00p, taught class for an hour, left around 7:35p and my bike was gone. Cable lock, someone must have clipped it. Tons of other bikes locked up at various places on the street, all with U locks.

Ran into the store to grab a quick drink came out a couple mins later only to notice the bike was missing.

Parked at rack at side of building at 8:30AM, locked both wheels and frame to rack with cable lock. Returned to rack at 6 pm, found bike missing with lock left behind, cable severed near the lock. Filed police report with university police.
