I use 24oz bottles.  I have a rear hydration rack for two bottles and 1 bottle each on my downtube and seatube.  I don't have aerobars(I ride a roadie with GT Jammers that are too short to fit a bottle up front).

My plan is three bottles of Infinit and one water, getting more water at water stations, 3 more bottles of Infinit at Special Needs for the second half.  I might change my mind after I volunteer next week, but that seems to be my best option since I can't run a bottle up front.

Though I am not crazy about the price, I am thinking of getting the Speedfil for IMWI 2010.  I would like to be able to drink without having to reach for my bottle every 15 minutes.
