    A serial commuter? Is that someone who eats their breakfast on the way to work?

    No. Just one with omnidirectional communication.

    Other bikes you've owned? You assume you own the bike you commute on.

    Some of us have bikers for bosses, and they give you a company bike

    Yes, but if guess you are more an exception than the norm.
    Meh, who wants to be normal anyway?

    What would anyone do with a cup holder on a motorcycle? Stop and think about that for a minute.

    Just think how much money you'd save if you bought a takeaway at the first café and just kept taking it to the next café?

    To be fair my scooter has a pocket I have used to take coffee to stand in the wind and rain helping people do their drills when I was still associated with the NASS ride.

    When I saw the coffee question the first thing I thought of was one of those American football beer holder helmets, but I don't think it would pass NZS 5430.

    Yeah .. I would love to carry coffee on my bike - but how do you drink it with a full-face??? Let alone at very naughty speeds.

    And then, I only drink small cups on the road - it runs through the system quickly (especially in cold weather) and then I have to stop to pee ..

    So that I can go through a drive through on my bike? (put the food in the Packrack and the cold drink in the cup holder)

    +1

    Also would like to stop by at a cafe have a coffee takeaway. But that holder better be vibration proof as hell.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
