Cup Holder For My Bike

Posted by RL Policar On August - 29 - 2008

Today I have a day off, so after doing some house work, I got thirsty and needed a refreshing drink. I rode my Xtracycle down to the local 7/11 to get me an ice cold beverage. One of the problems that most bicyclist have in carrying drinks is the lack of a cup holder. Waterbottle cages suck because if you try to put in a cup from your favorite fast food joint, the lid comes off.

So awhile ago I bought this cup holder that Electra Bicycles makes. This retails for about $20, but since I worked at the shop, my price was about $9.Anyhow this thing has seen many drinks in its life time, I’m talking about the holder. Between Priscilla’s lattes and my Big Gulps, this sucker has held up well.

I think this is an accessory that every bike commuter should have!

    That is simply awesome. I think I may try to make one of these.

    All your missing now is a tray to put your hot dog, hamburger, or chips on.

    I want to see a front basket with multiple cup holders, so I can get fountain drinks for the whole family!

    at red lights, do you track stand and sip out of your big gulp simultaneously? That would be super badass.
