Drinks bottles

[wannars125]

I'm sure I've seen cyclists with drinks bottles with an extra long straw but I can't find anything. Was wondering if anyone had seen anything like this for motorcyclists?

[JoshRS]

BOTA BLADDER. wanted something like this myself for a while now

edit #2: seems to only be available in america, or not available in the uk, could try your local HG or i'd do a pick up for you if you want.

I have a camelbak that i'm yet to use on the bike but you can by cheaper bladders without the bag that you can put in any bag, tank bag etc. Most rucksacks now come with a headphone and hydration holes in them to allow you to use these hydration bladders.

On the fly drinks are a good idea but as Frankie says, "A rides not a ride without a stop for coffee!"

Just look in an outdoor shop like Millets or Blacks See:

cheers Pete & Josh those ones look good.

I know a ride isn't a ride without a few stops but don't class commuting as a proper ride!

Why dont you stop every couple of hours stretch your legs and have a drink then.

It will keep you more alert and safer in the saddle.

Lets be honest we dont live in a massive country do we.

I have a camelbak and a platapus system, used for walking and when in the field, never needed one on the bike, prefer to stop, get a stretch and a brew and chat to the local wildlife.. birds preferred..

next you'll be after a cup holder... Goldwing anyone...

I can't imagine what sort of mess it would make trying to take a drink at 70mph on a motorway, with a full face helmet on. If you're too tight to buy a brew, or too shy to stop, take a small flask.

i got a camel back thing, 12 notes from decathlon...i use it on my mountain bike but intend modifying my speed hump on my leathers to fit it in there

'kin 'ell - how far do you commute?!!

[Guest]

Never seen the point of these.... cos surely if you drink your gonna need to stop for a pee??

And a ride aint a ride without a cuppa tea and a cream cake!

About 35 miles each way and can take up to 1hr 15mins. Sometimes when the weather is hot it'd be nice to have some water to sip on.

ummm, warm water... sounds refreshing....

[JoshRS]

can't you fill them with tea?

by the way, they're meant to be filled with ice too. plus it's on your back, and back sweat is cool so won't make the water warm, according to my chef at work anyway
