Re: [ST] distance riding

Interesting thoughts on the camelback.  I have put mine inside the tank bag, 
but found it a little more inconvenient to use (have to suck to hard to 
overcome gravity) but did not consider the map pocket.  I also have a 74 oz. 
so it may not fit.  Thought about putting it under my jacket this last 
week-end, thinking it may give some additional cooling effect.  I also have 
a back protector in the jacket.  Put on the camelback, put on the jacket, 
looked in the mirror.  OK, I'm not real fashion conscious in Moto-gear, 
function over fashion I say.  But, Man, I looked like freakin' Quasi-Moto!  
I could just imagine the additional effect when leaning over the bike.  I 
felt this would be a safety hazard to all those I would share the road with. 
  What with their laughing and crashing with teared over eyes.  I put it 
back outside the jacket.

Still, I get some strange looks/questions about it a rest stops.  Goes with 
the territory I suppose.
