ABSTRACT:
The bicycle sports gel packet carrier is adapted to be releasably engaged to the throat or stem of a bicycle proximate to the handlebars and is further adapted to transport sports gel packets for consumption by a bicyclist during a bicycle race. The bicycle sports gel packet carrier is formed of a body having a first affixation member to releasably secure the body to the throat or stem. At least one tab grasper is engaged to the body proximate to the top. The tab graspers include receiving slots adapted to receive a tab of a sports gel packet and further include a tearing edge used to assist in the separation of the sports gel packet from the tab. An elongate strap may be integral or attached to the body to further secure the body about the throat or stem. At least one flap is pivotally engaged to the body to releasably cover a sports gel packet during transportation on a bicycle. The flaps may include expanders and engagement edges for releasable affixation of the flap to the exterior of the body. The interior of the flap may also include a pocket for carrying an empty sports gel packet following consumption by an individual to reduce litter.
