Around here, most bike racks don't look nearly as tough as a parking meter. Is there a chance you could get the Kryptonite around the rear wheel and one chainstay or one seatstay tube, plus the parking meter?

Otherwise, if you can locate two poles that are about 1 meter apart, or a railing made of heavy steel tubing, then you could lock the bike to the two poles, or two separate sections of the railing, with your two separate locks. Like shown in this pic (except your Kryptonite lock isn't as long, so you'll have to lock what you can). If I had two U-locks like you do, then I'd lock the frame to both poles, and use the cable to lasoo the wheels and seat/post to the Kryptonite.

You can also go Nightmare mode by adding a cheap circular padlock to make the cable into a third independent locking system.


double trouble for thieves... cutting one lock won't get them much.
