If you stay aware of what's going on around you that shouldn't be a problem. If someone ever tried to take off with my bike or any of my gear, they'd end up with a plug with 2 sets of trebles stuck in the back of their head.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I never leave a rod on mine. If I bring 2, they both go down the rocks with me. The reason is 2 fold. First, so it doesn't walk away like you mentioned. Second, no matter how good a kickstand setup you have your cruiser is gonna blow over in the wind at some point. Not great to have a rod in the launcher when it happens.
