I really hate riding in the heat but I don't have a lot of options. Drinking more water will help, but I don't drink enough water because it is awkward to reach for a bottle when I'm climbing, which I do a lot of. So, I am looking for some sort of hydration system where I don't have to reach for a drink. I have seen some road riders using Camelbaks but I am not sure that I want something strapped to my back which will probably cause me to sweat more and will also heat up the water. There is a device called a NeverReach which clamps to the back of the saddle, but my saddle has a bag attached so that probably won't work. An ideal solution would probably have a tube that goes from one of the water bottles up to the handlebars. I have seen a similar setup like this for use with aerobars, but I have carbon fiber bars so this isn't an option. Any suggestions? Bruce Edited by Darby (06/22/08 03:14 AM) Post Extras
