Hi TubeDude,
On the subject of extras, although I've never heard of a case of tube-jacking, with us it would be impossible anyway- they couldn't get close enough to me as my tube resemble a marine porcupine anyway, I've had occasion to carry around my tube minus rods, in the bed of my pickup and been forced to leave the vehicle unattended for a short time. Famous last words!!!!
In California this is asking for it unfortunately. I have some bungie and cargo tiedown cinches but these are not locks. I also thought of a heavy rubberized cargo net too but wonder what your suggestion might be?
I'm sure you've come across this delima. Plus, usually the stuff that is inside the pockets of the tube is worth way more than the value of the tube itself.
Need some input TubeDude from the man that's done it, gurarranteed!
