Abstract
An integrated security cable, locking mechanism, and storage case particularly designed for locking skis, bicycles, snowboards, and similar articles to stationary objects such as trees and posts. The lock is employed by removing the lock and cable from the case. The cable is passed around the first object and back through an eye fitting. The annular storage case is so designed as to allow the cable end to pass into a center opening and coil around the interior wall of the case. The lock body then follows the cable into the center opening where it is retained by a snap fit between the lock mechanism and the case. The complete assembly is then easily carried in a jacket pocket or pouch.
