Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Handlebar bottle holder

Hi, I'm thinking to use my handlebar for carring two bottles on my longer rides for easier access. Is this a good way to go besides camelbak? Anybody uses one or knows a place for ordering one? I don't like the one connects to backseat.

Google™ is your friend:

Minoura cage bracket

(it's a single holder, btw)

Bontrager makes one that has a clip attached to the cage so that it can go on the bar.

There're all the triathlon front-mount bottles.

This one needs aero bars though

I have one mounted to the handlebar on my touring bike. It provides extra water hauling capacity and is much easier to drink from after adding a straw to the bottle used in that cage. I typically refill that bottle from the bottles in the standard bottle cages. I purchased it from my LBS.
