Ive got a Camelbak HAWG. It is used by the USA navy seals The MULE is also very cool.

 

That thing is huge to cycle with

Like he said. Freeze half and top up with water in the morning. You will have an ice cold beverage for your entire ride. Blow back when you are done to prevent taking a mouthful of warm liquid every time..

There's a reason the Seals use this... Cos they're away from civilization for days at a time... Bigger the pack, the more junk you take along.

I like this one:

It has pockets for goodies and a 2l reservoir for drinks. Little tip I picked up, blow back your cold beverage other wise your sips in between will be warm. CWC had a special on them the other day, go check it out.

 

The 3L's are a bit overkill if you don't drink that much, did the karoo2coast with this one and still had some drink left. It is one of the cheapest camelbaks and unlike the 3L's it is not too long so it doesn't make your lower back sweat.

I also use this on longer rides. More than enough fluid capacity and space for tools & snacks.

Yep, lobo is the best! pop some ice cubes together with yor water and it stays cool for a long time. certainly keeping my water cooler than a bottle
