Hydration packs

Fri, 31 Oct 2014 12:42:24 GMT

A few years ago my parents bought me a hydration rucksack for skiing. It is big enough to take a 1.5l bladder and a jumper. Perfect for my skiing needs. Also plenty of space for Kendal mint cake and bits and bobs. My OH loves it and tries (unsuccessfully) to steal it!

I can't find the same one, does anyone use one or recommend one?

Icy - yes, another Xmas pressie!!

I have camelbak mule backpack, small rucksack with bladder built in, perfect for me About GBP50 a few years back now.

Did notice in Decathlon sports they had very similar products about half the price now.

Just buy yourself some neoprene tubing/sleeving from ebay, about GBP3 a length, to put over the exposed tubing as it stops the water freezing in the pipe.

The stuff I have seen in there I would buy, looks fine and good value.

There are some for GBP20 and nearly bought one as it looked real good value for money, though resisted as really didn't need it.

Does the job, but not very visually appealing - bit like me ;)
