Waterbottles on forks

[bakerjw]

I picked up some Cateye water bottle holders and mounted them to my front shock forks. I ended up making some EPDM straps that fit onto the holders and then go over the top of the bottles to hold them in place.
My first trip out, there was an "incident". I lost 2 bottles in the first few miles. Luckily I found one of them.

In looking at the forks, I can easily mount 2 on each fork. I figure 2 can be used for dry storage bottles and 2 for water. I still need to mount them up and take it out for a trial, but I wondered if anyone else had done something similar.

Photos of your setup? Are you saying your setup doesn't work, or does work and you're just looking for more inspiration?

I have water bottle bosses on my fork (Salsa Fargo) and haven't had anything ejected yet. I do have to be careful the thread the bottle into the cage, not accidentally shove it into my wheel though...
