My DH is my biggest supporter and encourager (some might say "enabler"). We met at the LBS sunday a.m. shop ride, so cycling has been a big part of our relationship from Day 1.
Since we are also "later in life" marrieds and kid-less (and are good friends of the LBS owner), we tend to too frequently indulge our desires for the newest and the coolest bike toys (like his re-fit of his Mtb, and he's currently trying to convince me that I "need" a fully custom Seven, since mine is "only" stock).
