The reference provided doesn't describe a "water bottle cycle," but rather how to drink from a cycling water bottle while riding. Therefore, I will explain how to drink from a standard cycling water bottle.
To drink from a typical cycling water bottle while cycling, you generally follow these steps:
-
Reach for the bottle: Take one hand off the handlebars and reach down to the bottle cage where your water bottle is stored.
-
Remove the bottle: Grasp the bottle firmly and pull it up and out of the cage.
-
Bring the bottle to your mouth: Bring the bottle up towards your mouth.
-
Open the valve: Most cycling water bottles have a valve or nozzle that needs to be opened. This is often done by pulling the nozzle up or twisting it open.
-
Squeeze and drink: With the valve open, firmly squeeze the bottle. This will shoot a jet of water directly into your mouth from the nozzle.
-
Drink carefully: Take small sips to avoid choking or spilling.
-
Close the valve: After drinking, close the valve by pushing it down or twisting it shut.
-
Return the bottle to the cage: Carefully guide the bottle back into the bottle cage and ensure it's securely in place before resuming normal riding with both hands on the handlebars.
It is generally considered good etiquette not to completely empty your water bottle in a group ride, leaving some for others if needed.
