Bivos off the Bike

September 19th, 2024 | by Keaton Smith

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!

When alpine skiing, the most essential friend is the one who always brings a backpack full of snacks and Bivos. It's a key part of having a full day on the slopes.

Hot days at the barn in Michigan call for insulated bottles! Thanks, Melissa, for sharing this picture hydrating with the horses!

Whether its after a classic Vermont late March snowstorm or trying to sneak in some early season ski touring, there's nothing better than filling a Bivo and hitting the backcountry.

At the top of a climb outside at Red Rocks canyon in Nevada, all you want to do is take in the view. And sip some water! The grippy texture of this bottle meant it was easier to hold and less likely I’d drop it into the void below 😂

Popping two Bivos into a hip pack or backpack can be the way to go when you’re out on the trail for many hours. This particular picture was snapped between wheezes near the peak of Sacagawea Peak north of Bozeman, MT!
