Upcycle the leg from a pair of pants into a DIY bicycle handlebar bag!  Heather from Heather Handmade has a tutorial showing how.  The little bag hanging from the handlebars of your bike is a handy spot to carry a phone, sunglasses, small flashlight, or other essentials.  Go to Heather Handmade for the upcycle tutorial.
