Locking up a SideCarrier?

Hi everyone!

I'm new to the boards and had a couple questions. I just picked up a Chariot SideCarrier and am wanting to do some mild commuting- mostly short errands. How do you lock up a SideCarrier? Or for those who have rear trailers, how do you lock them up if you're running into a store or the library, etc.?

Thanks in advanced!

Grace

6' cable through a support and back to the bike. You may need two locks if you can't use the end of a bike rack.

Also run the cable through the single quick-release wheel--a thief can pop that off in less than a second!
