Hydration Packs for Cycling

Posted by Helen Smeaton Apr 2, 2009 |
Spring is here and warmer weather is on the way. Staying hydrated whilst cycling is critical and today's modern hydration packs are a godsend for mountain bikers, hikers and road cyclists alike.
Whilst many road cyclists stick to using water bottles to keep hydrated - they just don't like having a pack on their back to slow them down - mountain bikers really need to use a hydration pack. It's key not just for replenishing water but also to hold all those things you are likely to need on a remote trail like snack bars, extra clothing layers, a waterproof, mini tool kit, spare tube, pump, ipod, camera and the list goes on!
Whether you need a pack just for holding water or a mini suitcase on your back, check out our articles on hydration packs:
