One good thing I can say about my old TaoTao is that it had two open storage bins in the front that could hold a 20 oz bottle .
I read some have a cup holder but the crappy bumpy roads here it would fall out .
I saw www.camelpak.com and they look good but some are pricey . Went to Cycle Gear that had some simlar but no way I would pay 80 when Wally World or Kmart has a similar product for 20 . I bought something like this which holds 2 liters like many do www.walmart.com/ip/Ledge-Sports-Jem-Hydration-Pack/19671736 . Today I bought some else like this www.walmart.com/ip/Wenzel-Freerun-Waistpack/16617713 its insulated , holds two bottles that come with it and the two storage pockets are insulated for a cool snack . In the store I saw a gel wrapped bladder that you can freeze it then put in a drink and keep it cold for 4 hours which I will get next . Did not see it on their website . Well on their website and not in the store I went in I saw the 14 liter one , wow www.walmart.com/ip/Coleman-14-Liter-Potbelly-Hydration-Backpack/16539550 thats a lot of beer lol . I did have a small cooler with built in radio that I would strap on the rack but noid the cops would think its beer as I almost never drink and hate that 49ccs have been labeled a " liquor cycle ) as many DUI offenders ride but so do licensed drivers like me as well . Thats another reason I put a MC tag on mny 50 so to not get bothered while going over 30 MPH as they have been harassing some scooters in my area .
When I used to ride high bicycles like Canondales , I had two bottle cages , one would be frozen the other cold . Drink the cold on the way from home and the frozen when coming home. It would be thawed by then .
On Dr Oz he said 85% of us are dehydrated to some level . I know if I do not guzzle 2 gallons or more of water a day in the peak of summer I feel sick . I prefer to carry Gatorade and bottled water instead of tap water . Sodas should be avoided . After reading this I quit drinking them but have one a week and never daily www.healpain.net/articles/softdrink.html .
I am part polar bear and love the winter as the hot summer makes me so sick I stay inside until night time .
A small pebble under your tongue helps prevent your mouth from getting dry .

but my drink didn't move. I use pipe insulation tubes for everything.
