Default Hydration Packs

EDIT: Need to clarify the below OP: Looking for a water bag, not the cooling vest. If you Google "hydration pack", you'll get links to both the vest and the water bag setups. Sorry for any confusion!

Original post:

Anyone have personal recommendations for hydration packs? Starting to do some longer trips here in south Texas and it's kinda falling into the "gotta have" category.

Any recommendations based upon personal experiences (good or bad) with website links greatly appreciated!!

I'm using Harley's 4 packs that fit into the pouches in my Harley mesh jacket. I also use a neck cooler from sports authority. I usally bike with a soft cooler with water and ice cubes and a zip lock bag to refresh it along the way. It helps a lot.

I have a full face helmet so when I need some water on the road I use a water tank/bag with a tube. This one sits in front of me so I don't have issues with the backrest.

A 20-24 ounce bottle tucked in the pocket of my driver's backrest is all I need. I can reach it while riding and take a squig when needed.
