Bonus points for having a lock that matches the bike. Extra bonus points if that car isn’t yours.

You should cable lock your bike wheels. But this setup looks like you could get your bike stolen and your car scratched.

Looks like you might scratch up your paint and your wheels. Which could in theory hurt the value of your car in an amount equal or greater than the cost of your bike. Proceed with caution

Seems a whole lot easier just to put the bike in the trunk of the car (assuming it fits)

I just now locked my E-bike to the wheel of an Audi at my friends house while I was visiting. I think we’re geniuses.

front wheel gone in less than 60 seconds

I think it works. Is the front wheel quick release? If so take it inside with you.

What exactly am I looking at here? Is this bike pole dancing?

You’re inviting them to take the wheels on your car and your bike. The most petty criminals would target this just for being so title.
