Ask the manager can you remove the abandoned bikes from the bike shed to make room for commuters. Stick up a sign to say any bikes left on Friday will be marked for removal the following week to make room by order of management. Remove the bike monday with managers blessing.

You're such a kind and generous man Mr Boar, so I think you deserve something back from the world. I personally wouldn't take it, but I wouldn't think any less of you if you did Happy

i would have taken it and replaced it with a laminated message that i was keeping safe, recycling it and saving the planet.

no one dares argue if you say saving the planet. Magic words them. Grin

Gradually dismantle it, taking home one small piece at a time and then re-assemble it at home.

yes Peter !! but dont give away the location of the solid gold bicycle !


I like the 'abandoned' approach !! I also have a laminator and now i have the lovely Waynes seal of approval, things may start to happen.......


......pending further ponderings.

UPDATE

I spoke to the transport manager , he had a bit of time to chat so it was a very reasonable conversation and not rushed


he says the best thing to do is take a photo and one of the department managers will put it in the weekly newsletter, abandoned bikes need removing from premises etc etc


there is a chance some opportunist scrote will take advantage, but overall , if no-one claims it, im having it.

I am pondering locking it up having the newsletter state you need to see the manager and stake your claim.

Obviously if its just a lazy sod who decided after one attempt ,to never cycle to work again , it is their bike and they should take it home.


people who treat bikes like this dont deserve a bike !

it took alot of work to get the chain into decent condition , and there are a few bits i wouldnt mind replacing BUT its just for a bit of razzing up and down local trails

it was close to death , but i gave it life !
