Great system in use but ...... :)

I used a similar system integrated in my rug sack when running marathons actively for 30 years . The reason was that i did not had to stop by any drinking stations . The only issue with this drinking system is to maintain good hygiene , i always took it a part after a long run and washed it at home in the dish washer on 65 degrees Celsius hot water. The tubing and drinking bottles are mostly made of acid free plastic compound which fungus bacteria love. Drinking fluid containing sugar is something bacteria love to grow in when free air and light gives it a boost. Salty isotonic drinking fluid like the ones i used then give less bacteria growth problems but still ...... i think a good drinking hygiene is important !

Thanks for sharing your thread. Martinius
