    Columbia River Gorge Tour on my S30

    This tour rented all their vans, so maybe not. How was the Atlantic coast tour? Yes Rick, it definitely lived up to the dream. About half the group was retired or had jobs with summers off, a mix of couples and individuals, and now that I saw the age group, I can tell you there is plenty of...

    How I spent my Summer Vacation (an ongoing vendetta saga)

    I have the insulated hose on my Camelbak and it makes a difference (but still not as well insulated as the Camelbak itself).

    How I spent my Summer Vacation (an ongoing vendetta saga)

    No option in Florida ! Its gonna be warm water. My camelbak insulated tube runs into the (BBB) brain box and you need to empty the tube before you get a cold drink. So suck up a long drink or blow the line clear and have to pull all the way from the bladder. Jeremy, If you want a low cost way...

    1st century - longest ride ever

    It's awesome how everyone has different ways of attacking this. I'm curious - how did you hook up your aero bag?

    1st century - longest ride ever

    Congrats on your ride. Contrary to most I love the bladder system and it works great for me on every ride. I use this dual bladder http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ECVIKTG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage folded in my aero bag for most rides under 40 or so miles I only fill...

    Paris or bust ... probably bust

    I'm not a hydration bladder guy as that's really only good for water and not fuel mixes. So if you stray from the bladder check out: http://cruzbike.com/forum/threads/how-i-spent-my-summer-vacation.7599/#post-28370 My final configuration can be done with off the shelf parts and if using all...

    Multi-Day Ride: 100 miles a day

    Heck, forget the bottle, just water the road as you go by.... :) ... It is amazing how a full bladder can make you so uncomfortable! I have been experimenting with condom cathedars for my upcoming 24 hour at Sebring. They seem to work pretty good, but man........ are they "painful"...

    First club ride, and help needed

    ...stream ( since my body has already done that.) I was thinking of a showers pass unit like in the link, And some kind of pack similar to other stick bike arrangements. I would PREFER TO USE ONE BAG with a water bladder in it. ( and not two ). What do you folks do? Aero in very important.

    ...is immortalized in Sebring photos. I haven't seen John's version. My intent for this bag is to carry emergency tools tools and a water bladder. I'll use this every day and save the panniers for when I need to haul stuff. My modifications to the existing idea: 1- use 3/4"...

    yet another Silvio build thread

    ...for my own use. No commerical intent. I like the Radical Racer/Banana Racer panniers, but they're bigger than need for carrying my water bladder. The Radical Solo Racer might work for the Silvio but is too small for my purposes. The bags are 20" long, 6" tall at the front. 8" tall at the...

    yet another Silvio build thread

    Hanging the bag at an angle is a compromise. I should have said that it takes more suction to lift the water 18 inches from the pannier than it does to pull it from a reservoir mounted high on the seat back. It was a surprise the first time but is manageable if I'm not panting too hard...

    USS Yiggy (version 1.1), a Trek Y 26 CruzBike Conversion

    ...and love it Hey Sam, good looking conversion. You went thru basically the same thing I did. I have the Topeak MTX BeamRack and carry a water bladder, keys, phone and spare tube with tools in mine and wouldn't ever go back to water bottles. I also have the Y26 and finally upgraded about a...

    Rack solution for the Silvio 2.1

    ...link on the above web page to se a comparison of the various models. I like the look of the solo racer too. That would hold a water bladder plus emergency supplies nicely. Before I start buying other bags, I'll see if I can make my OFA bag work. I have of time to think about...

    Silvio 2.0 Modified Seat

    I like what you have done I like what you have done assuming it works. I am also wrestling with neck comfort issues. The bonus points you get for your design is you now have a tool storage area or water bladder compartment where the neck rest tubes use to go.

    Water Bottle Mounts on Silvio 2

    i hope someone tries a i hope someone tries a camelback in its pack worn on the front. This would ideally place the bladder from upper groin to mid sternum. Your not adding weight to the bike, the water (and whatever else you put in the pack) goes with you when you dismount and do other...

    Water Bottle Mounts on Silvio 2

    Charles...I can not seem to The only secret I know if is that you have to keep the bottom down. that is, where the hose is attached to the bag. In the case of the Unbottle, it's attached at the little zippered pocket at the bottom. Keeping the wide mouth opening up is probably...
