I've been using a Camelbak on my road bike for a few months now (even a 72 mile ride where it was a godsend) and I don't understand the hate for them. For some reason I drink more water, maybe because I know the nozzle is just below my face. I'm also working on reaching for a bottle (I get wobbly- I get that it takes practice), but it's been nice having the Camelbak there for when I'm not quite comfortable reaching down. Sometimes I'd rather not risk reaching for a bottle when it's bumpy because I suck at it right now.
