Only one water bottle mount on bike?

Question

My bike only has one place to mount a water bottle holder, and being a major sweater, I really need to bring along more that one bottle on long rides (and I go out in the country where there is no place to refill). What are my options other than carrying one in the pocket of my jersey?

Answer 1

Go to your nearest bike shop and have them put an extra water bottle cage on your bike. It won't cost you more than 10 dollars and thats a generous estimate.  Dehyration on a ride is a serious and potenitally fatal situation.  Spend the 10 bucks and ride on....

Answer 2

There are seat post bottle cages both single and dual.

You can mount another on your frame with hose type clamps.

Use a camelbak.

Use a very tall bottle for your single cage.

EDIT: I didn't copy your answer mtbikr. There was only 1 answer when I started mine! We must think alike is all.

Answer 3

Camel Back is your best bet.  Bottles can only hold so much.

Answer 4

Try a camelback water carrier.

Answer 5

you could always mount another one, or get a basket on your bike (looks kind of dumb i know but it would be useful)

Answer 6

You have two options,

1) A Camelpak. ( wide verity of makes and capacity)

2) You can mount a bottle holder to the seat post. (most of these hold two bottles and just clamp on.)

Answer 7

You might want to cosider a Camelbak.  Those are great for long distance rides.
