A Polar Bottle traveling around the world… (caption contest update)

A Polar Bottle traveling around the world… (caption contest update)

On June 16 this year Tricia won the caption contest, so I sent her a Polar bottle, which 11 days later arrived safe and sound in Canada. I just found a @PolarBottle at my front door!

Here are some pics she just sent me: Thanks for the lovely pics, Tricia. It looks like you had a great holiday in France!

Cari saluti dalla bella Sicilia!...

If you go on a bike ride with me or one of the other local guides, we will lend you a Polar Bottle so you can test it yourself for free. But you can also win one! How?
