ScotRail is set to give abandoned bikes a new lease of life by donating them to charity. 

The rail operator has announced that any unclaimed bikes left at stations across its routes will be given to Cycling UK. 

If bikes aren't reclaimed within three months of them being left, they will be recycled or donated to the charity.

Cycling UK is the UK charity inspiring millions more people to cycle providing skills, motivation, advice, and support to enable everyone to ride a bike.
