I need to get a train out of Euston station at stupid-o-clock tomorrow. I can get an extra hour in bed if I go on my bike instead of the tube. Anyone know what the best street to park in is? It is free, right?

Any help appreciated. Cheers

There is a learning tree training centre adjacent to euston station.

Behind this building there is street parking. I have parked my bike there tons of times. I cannot remember if bike bays or or whether it is just normal road parking, I have just always parked with the other bikes that are there. Obviously if you are early you may be the only bike there!

Also, don't leave your lid with your bike. Some thieving sts just cut it off my brother's bike.

Ooof. I caught someone trying to do it to my bike outside Fulham Broadway. They ran off as I came round the corner. I didn't see what they were up to until I found my helmet strap half-cut.

Now I lock the lid through the chinbar and link it to the bike via the headstock. They only way they'll have that is if they break by substantial lock.
