Hydration pack for cycling
Don't know about you but when I'm out cycling, I'd rather have minimum extra junk attached to the frame of my bike, rattling, banging and occassionally falling off. So I took my bike's bottle cage off a while back and since than have been carrying water in a backpack. It's not ideal though as I needed to stop and take the water out the pack for a drink. Result: a headache that wont go away because I don't stop to rehydrate enough.
The solution has been sitting here on the shelves of the camping shop. The Highlander Aquapack is a hydration system much like a Camelbak. It consists of a durable bladder held inside a small backpack with a hose that sits over your shoulder for you to drink out of.
Does it work? like a dream. Mine holds 2 litres so I should never have that dehydration headache again.
