You ever push your non-prescription Ray-Bans up your nose with one hand, scrolling through your iPhone 5 to find the new Pitchfork-recommended single with your other, while guiding your ten-speed (fixie?) through Brooklyn foot traffic with your knees and think, “Hey, I could really use a drink, like, right now?”

Yeah? Well, then, my multi-tasking friend, bear witness to the strange genius that is the Handlebar Minibar, compliments of Kickstarter Yannick Read (who also did this thing with this guy and put a train whistle on a bike). Two vials, tucked into the hollow ends of your bicycle handlebars (though apparently, it’s a one-size-fits-most deal), hold 5mL each of your favorite booze. FYI, altogether, that’s about a fourth of a short. But that’s not the point. The point is that you have booze in the handlebars of your bike.

And Yannick says it’s not just for booze. Use it for “banknotes” or “a rolled cigarette,” or as one Internet reader added (but this particular writer cannot publicly encourage), “coke and weed.”

Check it out on Kickstarter.

P.S. — Don’t drink and bike, man.

Aziza Sullivan has always enjoyed three things in excess: food, writing, and sleeping. While the first two are happily combined, the third tends to get in the way, since it turns out the average reader is uninterested in sleep blogs. She also enjoys coffee, probably too much, if there is such a thing.
