SIP and spin!

With the weather warming up and a new wheel at my disposal I'd like to get outside more often with my wheel. My plan is to hit the parks this summer and "SIP" - Spin In Public. What better way to SIP than to sip while I'm doing it. Ah, but sipping requires a cup, and a cup requires a stable setting while spinning. Well, guess what I just got my hands on? - A spinning wheel cup holder from FBN Plastics! They make very cool and practical cup holders for a variety of spinning wheels. I put mine on my wheel today and I'm very impressed by its quality and light weight. It installed in about 40 seconds and I've already thought of a dozen uses for it. Besides holding drinks, I can place a bobbin in it, whorls, scissors - even a ball of yarn. I think I'm in love...

I've been sorely tempted by those cup holders!

Its a pretty good idea. Not a bad price either. I got up the nerve to actually put a bottle of Vitamin Water in the cupholder. So far so good... :)

that's super cool... almost worth buying another wheel just to get one and have a place to put my drink...

but is drinking while spinning smart? (is it technically operating machinery?) :)

It's smart if you're responsible enough to have a designated spinner around ;)
