Coffee Carrying Happiness

My personal favorite for drinking my coffee on the bike, this would work nicely with that topeak mount:

I'll third the contigo coffee cups. I've gone through 3 of them in the last 4 years (I have a bad tendency to leave them on buses or at friend's houses on opposite sides of the country!)

I can even toss these things in my bag or backpack and not worry about them leaking! Love 'em!

That does look like a nice one.
20 oz vs. 16 means...um...more coffee for me! DH can't wonder why I left him "so much" coffee in the pot anymore! LOL!

Can you drink right out of it? I pour my coffee into a mug at work - as I don't care to drink out of those little caps my thermos has (too small) - but if this is vacuum sealed, leak proof, AND you can drink right from it - that means one less thing to wash. Yay!

Yep, it's got a spring loaded trigger button on one side of the lid that opens a little drinking spigot (not sure what else to call it?) at the other side. One-handed operation FTW!

Also, if you stay on top of rinsing it right after use (especially if you favor cream in your coffee or mocha-type drinks), their not too bad about the creeping crud. I've occasionally cleaned mine with q-tips in the hard-to-reach-bits when I've forgotten and left coffee+ in it.

Also, contigo makes water bottles that are BEYOND awesome.
