If you drink directly from rivers or puddles it does, but i keep mine in the
fridge if i want it chilled.

Yeah, seem to recall ice forming in the bottle a couple of times last
winter.

Speaking of winter.......can't wait :-(

On a cold, cold club run years ago when it was about -10 deg C, we got
to the cafe (a manor house in the middle of nowhere) and when we came
out again, the water was solid ice in all the bottles. Might be the
extreme cold or just a coincidence, but someone broke a crank and I
snapped a spoke on the way home.

Don't let water freeze in your nice Sigg bottles - they
rupture. Quickest way I know to destroy a Sigg.

Yes, I know plastic bottles are just as good, but I _like_ Siggs.

Siggs don't leak. My plastic bottles leak when carried in bf's pannier.

There was a letter on this point in the CTC rag a few issues back.

Wondering why cycle bottle leak from the top, when you can by water etc.
in 'sports' bottles that have tops that don't leak

Obviously a fault with bf's panniers.

As a control, have you tried putting a Sigg in bf's pannier.
