Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

Bike was stored inside of parking garage for condo building. Bike was in parking spot but without being locked at that time. Incident date is rough estimate as unknown when bike was taken while away at work.

The bike was left overnight in the garage (alley between Iowa/Walton and Leavitt) between 8pm on 10/17/25 and 8am 10/18/25. The garage door must have been left open or malfunctioned and the bike was taken out of the garage.

I left the bike properly locked with U lock and cable, left for 2 hours then came back and it was gone!

Came home and my bike wasn't on the porch. Our porch is tucked away on the third floor of a locked courtyard behind the building

In our building garage, there are several private walk-in storage units. My bike had been stored in our locked unit for about two years when not in use. The unit is located directly in front of our parking space, and our car typically blocks its door. This morning, my husband moved the car to go to work, leaving the area accessible. When he returned around 2 p.m., he noticed that several other storage units were cracked open or wide open. He checked ours—which was still locked—and discovered that my bike was missing. He called me to confirm, and when I went down to check, the bike was indeed gone.

My bike was stolen out of my apartments storage location. The thief would have had to enter through two secure doors to get in.

Bike was stored in my closed garage, attached to my yard with both a locked front and back gate. It was sandwiched between the wall and my partner's bike which was not taken.

Off street in apartment public space, taken overnight

Garage was accidentally left open for 20 minutes. Came back home and the bike was gone. Found video footage of the theft after the fact.

My bike was located behind a gated area (gate doesn’t lock) near my apartment complex where another one of my neighbors bike was stolen around the same time.
