crescent wrench on the nut, unbolt with leverage to spare, much smaller pitlock gets taken along for the ride and unscrews (or broken)

seems a major oversight that you only get 1 security nut with the key
thief could unbolt the opposite (normal)dropout, then use a wrench on the axle itself from the inner side of the pitlocked dropout,
unbolted without any need to grab the pitlock nut, its own friction holding it steady
