A new, wide-mouth camelbak bladder, and a new fridge that dispenses
filtered crushed ice and cold water through the door... Ahh.

If only the cap was a little easier to unscrew the cap, but just tried
the crescent wrench... worked good!

Isn't that the truth... I try to be careful not to overtighten the cap
but it still gets a fearsome grip. Running hot water over it works, as
does passing it over to the husband.

Someone suggested rubbing a little olive oil on the
cap and mouth threads, sorta like dabbing a little oil
on the oil filter when installing it. This trick works for
me.

I use a good ol' American made pair of Channel-Lock pliers, with the
slightly long handles. Provides excellent leverage 🙂

I hate the new Omega bladders. I can never get the friggin things open when
I want to put water in there.

I just realized a disadvantage to switching to disc brakes. My hands
won't be as strong! Maybe that's why I never had problems with my omega
bladder. Nuts!
