ABSTRACT:
An apparatus installed on a bicycle to permit the rider to drink water or other liquid while riding. The apparatus comprises an extensible drinking straw which communicates with a water bottle. In a preferred form, the straw is a flexible tube coiled in a retracting reel mounted on the upper horizontal bar of the bicycle frame, with the water bottle mounted below the saddle. A form of retracting reel is shown which requires no rotating seal, but permits the flexible tubing to remain in one continuous length. An alternative form comprises a length of retractile coiled tubing in a lidded container mounted within reach of the rider. Another form employs a telescoping drinking straw of rigid tubing.
