例文

（舗道でつまづいて、膝をひどく擦りむいた）

In some countries however, train companies will allow you to transport your bicycle on the train to your destination. For example in the UK the trains have an area set aside for bicycles.
I couldn't find a spot to lock up my bike, so I missed the train.
A 'spot' just means a 'place.' Instead of 'park', we usually say 'lock' our bike. We use 'park' when referring to cars -- e.g.: 'Park the car over there.' vs. 'Lock up the bike over there.'
「spot」は「場所」という意味です。普通「park one's bike」ではなく、「lock one's bike」と言います。「park」は車について使います。
例
Park the car over there.
（車を向こうに止めてください。）
Lock up the bike over there.
（自転車を向こうに止めてください。）
"I could not find a spot to lock up my bike safely, so I missed the train"
If you could not park your bike, and this resulted in being late to catch the train you planned to get, you could say any of the following, "I couldn't park my bike and I missed my train", "I could not park my bike so missed the train" or "I could not find a spot to lock up my bike safely, so I missed the train". All three of these sentences adequately explain the situation you were in.

"I could not find a spot to lock up my bike safely, so I missed the train"（自転車を安全に停められる場所が見つからず、電車に乗り遅れた）
上記どの文を使っても、その時の状況を説明できます。

I couldn't find anywhere to leave my bike which caused me to miss my train.
"I couldn't find anywhere to leave my bike" Saying this would mean that you looked and there was no space for you to park your bike which is short for bicycle, Then to explain that was the reason you was late for the train you could say "Which caused me to miss my train" Caused means the reason why something happened.
Example using caused - " Going to an hospital appointed has caused me to get even more sick".
"I couldn't find anywhere to leave my bike"（自転車を停められるところが見つからなかった）
は「探したが自転車を停められるところがなかった」という意味です。"bike" は "bicycle"（自転車）の省略です。

When traveling by bicycle(bike) and you need to get another form of transport like a train, it is necessary to safely chain up the bike near to the train station. If this place, also called a bike park, is not provided next to the station, you can waste time in finding another safe place to chain the bike, therefore it is possible to miss your train.
