And hydration bladders may be nice and all, but a) the cleaning process looks to be a chore and b) I'm really trying to free up my back to allow air to flow more freely over me.
I use a camelback for long training rides. I find that the cold water (and it stays nice & cool realy long) keeps my back cooler, and this is in 90+ degree Florida. Much different than the backpack that I carry to work which seems to increase the temperature by 5 to 10 degrees.

Plus, your drinking source is always much cleaner than a bottle in a cage. This is one of the reasons why they are so popular with mountain bikers.
