i thinking about taking the bike rather than the train to Nunhead Cemetery, mainly as the train is perdicted to be 2 hrs or so which seems like a rather long time for a fairly short distance.
so the question is what probablity does a old mountain bike have of staying put there? round kingston i havn't had a problem it has to be said.

Many years ago I lived there (well not in the cemetery, but very close). Of course who knows for sure, but I doubt that it's especially more likely to get nicked there than anywhere else.
My commuting bike is the only one I leave locked up in public places for long periods of times - it features a dull grey paint job, untreated rust on the frame, plenty of grime on the frame, unfashional dynamo lights... It just doesn't look that attractive and has never received unwanted attention, despite the fact that it's pretty valuable - e.g. speedhub, SON...

mmm yes i suspect that the bikes old looks and fine covering of welded on mud probably means it's not that attractive a target.
