In some cases I have almost semi-dehydrated looking for free tap water while riding. To tell you the truth, I almost always buy Gatorade or something else when thirsty because at least the pretense of "pristine" or re-packaged tap water isn't there. Sugar. Sure. But at least I am not buying something I can already get for free! I almost universally despise bottled water, and now I have further reason to not partake.

Probably not enough, but it's still a thought. I wonder how much support we could get for a measure to make bottled water illegal? Probably not enough, but it’s still a thought.

Now I feel the need to design bumper stickers w/ them! "This is NOT a Hummer", "Kensigton Springs", "L'eau de Inwood"... How about ideas for advertising NYC tap water? Any suggestions? I suck at taglines but I'll give it a try: "Healthy Tap", "Tap it up!". ;) Anyone else? I love your ideas!
