YA(hydration)T

[networkguy]

So, Im looking for a solution for hydration while riding two up. Systems like the Garauld Refreshment System wont work as they take up space in the wrong spot.

What Im thinking is, I have one of THESE Coleman 1 gal jugs, but Im trying to find tubing for it. Ive looked at REI.com and dicks Sporting goods, and the camelback tubing is too short I think. Im thinking I can just mount the jug on the back on this:

and then I was hoping to find some tubing to shove into the flip up spout and put a bite valve on the end. Im having an issue finding tubing

Anyone have any ideas or alternatives to my idea?

PM fljab, he made a slick set up using tubing from a ice maker... I think.

He could send pics and explanations. Ever consider a fire extinguisher mounting bracket?

Here's the details on how I did mine. Even if you change the mounting method the jug setup will still work.

Great idea for long solo runs!

you can use one, mount it elsewhere, and still tap it with tubing the same way.
