Added to this the Camelbak Classic 2 Litre cycling backpack has front and rear reflectivity, and I always stress that you can never reflect enough as a cyclist.

The 2 Litre reservoir on the Camelbak Classic is more than enough for fairly long rides. You will have to learn to pace yourself, however. On my first use of the Camelbak Classic, I had drained the whole reservoir by halfway through my ride because I loved the fact that I could drink without taking my hands off the handlebars.
