Stumped! Bike Lock for 2 Pylons

[BikeIndy]

Got a new tiny studio apartment. Can't fit the bike inside. Only have these two pylons outside seen in photo.

Is there any locking mechanism(s) or methods where I could lock my bike to these without a thief lifting it over?

Or am I looking at a regular bike lock and a bike alarm to discourage them?

This is not a super expensive bike.

Thanks!

Remove both wheels, seatpost & saddle and hope...or can you get a shed to keep a bike in, make it smaller by removing parts?

Dig down and put a ground anchor in cover with the gravel, remove gravel when required??

Sell it, buy a folder and keep ot indoors?

May need landlord permission however (or whoever owns the land outside)

Not unless you drilled a securing loop into one of them. Even then I’d be worried; aren’t those in place to protect the building from a likely vehicle strike? If so, I wouldn’t be leaving my bike there.

How about something like this..

If you keep it attractive, I doubt the land owner would mind.

But best to ask first

Looking into one or two 50lb kettlebells to lock with the bike lock. Again, not impossible to overcome, but lifting 50-100lbs vertically over 4 feet with a bike alarm going off wouldn't be fun. Thanks all.

Hang the bike on the wall? Of the flat, not outside obviously.

I'd be finding ways to keep it inside personally, even if it's a bit of a pain space wise.
On a wall, from the ceiling if possible, lots of options for that out there.
You say not super expensive but I'd still be gutted if it went walkies
