Why are bikes stolen?

Hello All:
Was reading another thread about stolen bikes and am wondering, "Why ARE bikes stolen?"
I'm sure no-one is sticking them in shipping containers and sending them away like they do with luxury cars / SUVs.
Is there a black market for bike parts? Or do people just steal these things and sell them for cheap online?
I could see someone stealing a bike to get around, but a CF race bike seems like a poor choice for a daily driver.
