Some water bottle strategies for long road races
If you’re doing a long road race that comprises multiple laps of a course and you have a feeder, make life as easy as you can for that feeder. Be super-nice, make directions as simple as possible, and don’t yell at them. and much more.
One essential thing to do is to write your initials on the neck of every bottle you start with and give them. That way they know yours and know what to give you and also know what to look for after you’ve tossed the bottle either at their feet or just past them. And it’s even better to have matching bottles. That way they know what design to look for and you’ve made it much easier for them to recover your bottles.
