Does that fit in a standard size bottle holder?
One must always carry their pimp cups in their right hand while holding out their pinky to show off the extra large iced out pinky ring. It makes technical riding difficult but if you cross paths with some bitches out on the trail it shows them who they are dealing with.

No microwave, wok or fire extinguisher? Your are running the risk of eating cold stir fry, drinking cold coffee and catching fire.
