That was my first reaction when I read your post Steve....I've never been to 
a ride in the regions that I normally ride in (PS and W) where the water 
thing was a problem.  All of the rides I've been to have adequate water.  I'd 
hate to see a "rule" written thereby making the Ride Manager job even more 
difficult than it already is.  They seem to cover the bases just fine without 
a rule.  (JMO)
