The lack of answers kinda suggests there isn't anything safe.
The only thing I can think of is the storage place (Big Yellow?) opposite Kings X station. It'll cost ya though.FCN 3: Raleigh Record Ace fixie-to be resurrected sometime in the future
FCN 4: Planet X Schmaffenschmack 2- workhorse
FCN 9: B Twin Vitamin - winter commuter/loan bike for trainees
I'm hungry. I'm always hungry!0 -
Does it need any cheap repairs? There's a big bike shop at the bottom of Pentonville Road and I doubt they'd be able to get it back to you the same day..."We're not holding up traffic. We are traffic."0

There are some bike racks straight outside Euston - some of the fancy new "double decker" ones and some normal ones. I left my bike overnight the other weekend and it was fine. Wasn't my best bike though.0

umm...i was wondering about those racks. My bikes about £500, if I secure it with a ton of chains on the top level do you think it will be ok there? or will i come back to a bike stripped of brake blocks, cables etc etc0

Yes: next0 -
If you want to go one hop to the next station from Kings Cross (overland to Finsbury Park) - and it's not rush hour restricted when you get there - then there is very good bike security at Finsbury Park station:

Might be a bit of a faff organising the swipe card in time though.
