OK, so a guy I work with (cyclist) came up to me yesterday and said "I think there is a bike outside work that's unlocked, its been there since the weekend". So we go and investigate, and indeed it is unlocked - just resting against a railed fence.
Its a nice red claude butler, probably about a 58cm frame, 531 tubing. Its got silver drops with red bar tape (and a little side mirror), and a pannier rack on the back (which a lock is threaded through).
It looks well looked after and seems to be in good nick. Surely someone is missing their bike? I just can't understand how it ended up there and lasted a good few days unlocked without being stolen (is it 'stolen' if its unlocked?).
Yesterday we decide to take it through the secure gate to the bike racks at work, it spent another night unlocked and is still there.
What to do??????
