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 .
1998
