It depends on circumstances. In a low crime area, I'll leave it on if only going for a few minutes. Any longer & I take it with me. It's an Acorn front bag with Velcro attachments so it's easy off (as in easy to steal). If it's a sketchy area or I feel uncomfortable I'll try to find someplace secure for the bike. I won't leave it unlocked even at the hardware store. On tours with panniers, rural areas seem pretty safe, so I'll lock the bike outside a grocery store with all the bags on it & have never lost anything. I wouldn't be so trusting at, say, LA City Hall.
