The only time I'll leave my bike on my (standard two pronged rack) out of sight without a lock is if I can back my car (and therefore rack) right up to a solid wall so the bike can't be slid off.
I'm fortunate not to have had my bike stolen but it seems a lot more common here in Wellington, NZ than it was even three years ago.
Higher demand for sweet bikes from more riders = demand from sketchy stealer/seller onners.
