when you sip from the hose, blow air back into the hose when you are done. That blows the water in the hose back to the chilled reservoir - so your next gulp of water will be cold, not sickeningly hot.

It may be dorky to the other roadies out there but I love my Camelback at this time of year.[/QUOTE]

Thanks withm! I hadn't thought about blowing air back into the hose after drinking from my Camelbak. I'll be sure to do that tomorrow so I won't get a gulp of hot water.
YUCK!

I do love my Camelbak!
