Ratchet strap, but also with a bike lock cable?

my idea exactly..... a ratchet strap is too easy to remove all by itself.... but if they want it bad enough they can just remove the whole rack too....

Why not get one of those Surco roof racks and throw it up on to that?

i was thinking about putting a full size spare of my roof too..... then i relaized that im running 35's and 8.5 inches of lift..... and i think it would crush me if i ever tried to get it down.
