How much have you been drinking on an Audax, how many bottles worth, and what is the size of your bottles?
Not forgetting drinking too much can be very dangerous, although the chances are slim on a bike.
Yes. Marathon participants have been known to die. I seem to remember they were not taking electrolytes in the water. Reverse osmosis?
I drank my water with electrolytes just for the record.
It all depends on the route and how many pubs it passes.
Reverse osmosis
I forgot to add that weather conditions (obviously) are a factor - I drink 25-50% more on a hot day than a cool/warm one.
I find that I often forget to drink enough on cold days and can get dehydrated. There is an interesting article HERE.
