Totally forgot about that one. Post #8 just brought tears to my eyes.

Apparently, being a punch line is your thing.
Seriously, did you not actually try to carry the golf club BEFORE you started a thread about it?

What's the best way to carry a bottle of water on a bike?

I won't recommend this. Half of my lifetime crashes occurred riding one-handed usually when carrying soda or beer bottle with the other hand or taking a garbage bag to the dumpster and road bikes are the worst for one-hand riding. Hitting a speed bump one handed at a relatively low speed and I got thrown off the bike. Even just pressing the brake moderately one-handed and I endoed so easily.
Respect to all who ride one-handed due to disability. I've only begun to "master" riding one-handed on a road bike by squeezing the top tube with my knees whenever I'm coming to a speed bump or during braking. But you just can't afford to get distracted if you need to ride one-handed.

Because, hopefully, you are an adult with some basic sense of how to ride a bike, and some sort of basic understanding of how to mitigate risk. I other words, hopefully you have a basic understanding of how to get along in life. If you cannot figure out how to ride a bike whilst carrying something, and cannot figure out how to test an idea before embarking on a long five minute ride, then there may be a remedial kindergarten in your area you may wish to check out.
