Thanks, Mr Fitz - I like that one. :thumbsup:

I've reached the point where I can drink from the steerer-mounted bottle while riding - without falling off ! :laugh: This is a major achievement. :highfive:


Still can't do slow-speed tight turns, though ... :sad: More practice needed there. :training:

I have my bottle cage on the back of the seat - it works well for me, its a bit like reaching into your back pocket for a drink.
I prefer to use 500 and 750 ml bottles as the 1 liters are a bit more difficult with this set up. (I have my pump the other side of the seat)

Only problem was that the bladder was in a black backpack carrier and the water became very warm when riding in even mild summer sun.

When using my camelbak in the summer I add ice cubes to the drink to keep it cool for as long as possible and in the winter I use at least 50% boiling water to make the drink to give me a hot drink for as long as possible

I'm surprised no-one has suggested one of these:

I mean, it's not as if you'll look any stranger to most folk...

It's very nice, GC - thank you. :rolleyes:

The back of the hard hat would need to be very flat, as it would otherwise interfere with my headrest. ^_^


Also, I'm not sure 'stranger' is quite the look I am going for ! :laugh:
