    I have a Blowfish for normal rides and one of those really tiny ones with no pockets that I got for a race and will use occasionally, now that I have a frame-mounted pump and a bag under my saddle for some tools.

    That being said, I'm really curious about the Magic and would love to hear people's opinions. When I got my Blowfish I didn't know they made women's-specific 'baks.

    Siren and lobo

    I have had my eye on the Siren for the most part because it is smaller and lighter, I can put on a saddle bag for the tools and CO2 pump, but it has no where for extra clothing for quick weather changes or after ride to keep warm. Suppose I could fold it in there with the bladder but the condensation may make it damp, could put it in a plastic bag though... hmmm or maybe I could put it under the front flap? Lobo is a bit larger for real long ventures where I can't refill with water and for extra food. Siren now, Lobo later is what I may opt for, but will continue to watch the posts for ideas.

    I've never been on a ride longer than my two bottles could hold out. However, my husband moved away from Camelbak several years ago. He found it was sweat-inducing and restrictive. He now puts Platypus collapsible water bottles in his jersey pockets for those long rides.

    Mmm Platypus bottles. My hubby and I love 'em. We use the large reservoir in our race car. We fill it up with ice and water at service.
