And it flows really good down your leg on a cold day when
you mount up and scrape the sipper off on the saddle in
the process. 

Mmmmmm, wet leg in winter...my very favorite...

I ended up switching the shoulder tube to my left side in
the end, because I kept scraping the sipper off and sitting
in a wet patch, so to speak ;-)

But can you actually ride all day with 70 oz on? I found that
it was too much for my puny back. Unless it's a ridiculously
hot day, I seldom fill mine more than half way - my back just
can't carry that much water without resorting to constant whining...
