Last night, around 6pm, I locked my bike to the front of my building, next to a solid fence. When I woke up this morning, I looked out my front window to see if my bike was where I left it, locked and secured. When I saw that it wasn't there, I ran down to the front of the building and I found that only the U-lock was there, still intact. Perhaps the thief used some sort of mechanical tools to break into the lock and leave it unharmed.

Bike was inside building at 2500 N Talman Ave. Sometime after 7:30pm someone entered building and tool bike. Bike was not locked as it was inside building.

Bike was locked to street sign around the frame around 6PM on 9-7-14. At 7am 9-8-14 the street sign was damaged and forcibly removed from the ground with the bike missing. Bike could have been ridden after being removed from the sign with some difficulty due to U Lock being attached to the top bar of the frame.

Bike was not locked, but stored in a locked common storage area at the condo where I live. No sign of breakage to the door lock, so whoever took this must have had a key to the storage room (i.e., a neighbor or someone who has access to their key). Pictured is the bike (center, foreground) in the storage area from which it was stolen. Bike was last seen in the room on Sept. 3, discovered missing on Sept. 7.

As I was riding home, I stopped and put my bike down at Augusta and Rockwell. I walked a few feet away, paused to talk to my boyfriend for a few minutes and when I walked back for my bike it was gone. My fault, I know, but this bike has great sentimental value. It was my aunt's from the 1960's and my man built it up beautifully (and bought me the saddle for my birthday.

Bike was locked to street sign in the parking lot next to my apartment building for easy access during the summer.

Bike was locked in front of 2150 North Lincoln Park West for 2 days because I take it to work everyday. I missed taking it one day and the next day it was gone. There are other bikes too parked in this area overnight so I took the risk of parking it outside instead of bike room.
