Hmm.

Granted that your setup will stop most opportunistic theives. However, if someone knows your setup (for example, reading this thread), and comes prepared...

The ground anchor goes through the rear wheel, which is a school boy error, as all you'd need to do is remove the rear wheel (24mm socket for a pointy and a tyre wrench). Either bring a spare wheel, or a van.

For piece of mind, with that anchor, I'd use a chain, and chain the wheel to the bike frame, but then it's starting to be a bit of a faff.
