Kings Cross is there anywhere to leave a bike?

Need to get to Kings Cross and park bike (cycle not motor) whilst we go off and explore then come back and catch train home (bike booked on train home).

Where's best to leave it?

There's a big cycle rack on the traffic island between Kings Cross and St Pancras, on the north side of Euston road.

But you might find it handy to cycle around in the centre of town - certainly nicer than getting the tube!

Ah 2 of us so need to just drop the bike off so we can potter around.

If you have 2 people and 1 bike, you can rent a lime bike or Forest bike around King’s Cross and get a second bike for as long as you need (charged by the minute via your phone). Download the app before you set off.

there is lots of bike parking around but make sure you have a VERY good lock.

The info is all here - just a bit tucked away. https://www.networkrail.co.uk/communities/passengers/our-stations/london-kings-cross/

Bicycle parking
We have recently increased the amount of cycle parking space available at King’s Cross with over 350, gas assisted two tier cycle racks now provided within the station complex. These facilities are monitored by CCTV and protected from the weather, providing customers with alternative onward travel choice and confidence when storing cycles at the station.

2 maintenance stands with tools and a track pump, located on platform 1 and 8.

What I've done in the past is find a bike shop and book it in for a basic service. Then collect it the next day.
Is that an option?
