I find waterbottles tend to bounce out of my vertical-mount cage on the handlebar. Minor road bumps + 25-30 mph downhill = no more water bottle, unfortunately. :-)

Dude your tracks are covered in coffee..

Either you've got that sickness when you can't stop shaking, or it's a really shitty device (more likely)

Seems like mud underneath the wet snow that was exposed from getting stepped on.

If you lived in New Orleans that would be a great place for your beer

Parts list?

It's a Minoura space mount bottle cage adapter, a Contigo autoseal travel mug, and a standard bottle cage.

Does it hold on well over bumps and also let you easily pull the cup out?

Not really. Some bottle cages fit better than others, that was an old one i pulled off my bob trailer and bent to fit the coffee mug, but i'm still experimenting with other options. Minor bumps aren't too bad, but I did eject the mug on a pothole. On the bright side, the mug is pretty much indestructible. chipped a big hole in the corner and scuffed the whole side of it up, never leaked a drop.

update: Lezyne power cage holds it like a CHAMP!

TBH i was expecting bar mitts. Does your coffee stay in there? I've never had luck with coffee on bikes.

Funny. As the image was opening I was thinking "beer holder". This is OK too, same genre.
