  1. 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!
