AN IDEA BORN FROM THE MOST BASIC HUMAN NEED— THIRST

HANDS-FREE HYDRATION IS BORN.

THEN

1989
Bicycle enthusiast Michael Eidson is competing in the“ Hotter’ N Hell 100.” And that’ s exactly what it is: a 100-mile road race in the grueling summer heat of Wichita Falls, Texas. Water is vital to surviving the race, and there are few places to refill a water bottle. Eidson, an emergency medical technician by trade, decides to fill an IV bag with water and slip it into a white tube sock. Yes, a tube sock. Then he stuffs the contraption into the back of his bike jersey, throws the thin hose over his shoulder, clamps it with a clothespin, and the hydration reservoir was born.
