Next to being lost at sea there is nothing
hat brings on tho pangs of thirst quicker
han bicycle riding. The hot sun and the
constant inhalation of dust quickly parches
he the throat and makes the biker long for
he next stop for refreshments. The wise |
-lder avoids ice water well knowing its dan |
ger. Alcoholic beverages are likewise |
abo0ed because of their heating propensities |
md there is little satisfaction in wshy- |
wash stuff sold under the broad classical /
ion of ''soft drinks" A well-known wheel |
nan, in speaking of this, said:
"What to drink is no easy problem to a |
nan on long, hot run. The only drink 1 |
Know really fit for bicycle rider is Hires |
Root beer, carbonated. There are but few |
places now at which it cannot be had, and l |
ell you 1t braces one right up, seems TO go |
light down to the bottom of your pedal
workers.. 1t is cooling and refreshing quick
y lowering the temperature and satisfying
our thirst.
