Even before I started working at Bivo, I was all aboard the anti plastic water bottle train. I was so excited when I was gifted my first Bivo bottle, and even though I was told it was for biking, I took it with me everywhere and used it for everything. From rock climbing to sitting at my desk at work to going on road trips, my bottle was always by my side.
When I first began working at Bivo, I quickly learned that even though we call ourselves a cycling bottle, 95% of Bivo customers use their bottles outside of cycling. Considering how I used my bottle for pretty much every activity I go on it made sense that everyone does that with their bottles too.
As we near the end of an excellent summer cycling season, I thought it would be fun to share a couple of my favorite photos and stories of Bivo users staying hydrated in contexts other than cycling and use this as a reminder that Bivos were born in the bike department, but belong everywhere!
