    killer workout

Best of luck, Greg

    Hydration Pack

    This won't cost you a dime, but another way to keep the tube from freezing in the winter or from the water getting warm in the summer is to hold the drinking tube upright, squeeze the mouth piece open and let the water drain back into the resoviour.  Works for me anyway. Greg
