Best way to carry coffee on a CaBi?

[fairfaxeph]

Have a new commute where taking a CaBi for the last mile from Gallery Place/Chinatown would be ideal. But I also want to stop at Dunkin Donuts for coffee at 7th and F. The CaBi basket is great for a lot of things – but doesn’t make a very good cupholder :p

I sometimes bike all the way from home, so it would also be great if the answer worked for my cruiser, too.

i have an insulated, leakproof contigo coffee cup that I got at target. I don’t ride a CaBi. I take my home brewed coffee with me on my 12 mile commute in my pannier side pocket. The coffee is still hot when I get to work and I’ve never had a spill. Here’s a link so you can look at the products: http://www.gocontigo.com/travel-mugs.html

I have a little half-sized thermos that holds a little more than a cup and never leaks. Usually I put it in my backpack, but you could probably strap it in the holder. I’m still waiting for custom bags designed just for Bixi racks. I suppose when NYC has them, they’ll start to pop up.

Thanks, I ordered one — it would be great to have a travel mug that doesn’t leak. Better to get it at Target, though, the shipping is half as much as the mug online.

Hope it works out for you. Remember to clean the lid carefully – I use a bottle brush. There are some lovely nooks and crannies where things can germinate and solidify. Not so much fun when you’re looking forward to a nice cup of coffee and you get something solid…
