This was in 25-30° C weather.
so what happens when your in like a 4 hour race or something where there are no fountains? would you carry more water? and where?
I have a fear of being stranded without water, I always have a bottle or 2 on me even when i'm just hanging out with friends...i would hate to not have enough water while i'm doing exercise...
also...does it bother you guys that you have this sleek bike...and theres this ugly bottle that doesnt look like it belongs there?
