I think I am going to build a "saddle spike".
A device that you can set when you leave your bike.
It will be a 20cm surgical steel spike on a strong spring mounted inside the seatpost.
Unless disarmed the device will operate upon body weight being applied to the saddle.
The spike will be propelled op the seatpost and will exit via a prealigned hole in the saddle.
So when a scumbag nicks your steed he gets a nasty, and very painful, suprise.
Of course you will have to remember to disarm it before you try and ride your steed.
