I hear you on the water bottles too! The camel back really helps!


On days when the ride is short and I don't want to use the camelbak, a Gatorade bottle (the 24 oz sport bottle) works really well. It comes out of the cage easily, and you twist the top open with your lips instead of having to pull hard with your teeth!

Good luck with your riding! You'll be fine on that 25-miler!
