There was no way my husband could object when I said I wanted a second bike.

DH asked me yesterday if I could have a second bike, what would I get? I honestly could not answer - I love my hybrid and I know the logical choice would be to get a road bike to go faster, but I like to ride in the upright position and at a slower pace so that I can scan for wildlife pic opportunities. Spirit suits me fine for now. DH misses riding his 10-speed racer and recently picked up a Raleigh racer to fix up. If he goes back into riding his racing bikes, I will have to reconsider the road bike. I remember when we were first riding together that I had a heck of a time keeping up with him on my mountain bike - argh - the good old days! But he is very happy with his new hybrid for now. It would be nice to have a back-up bike in case Spirit has to spend time in the LBS for tune-ups, etc. I have gotten used to riding every single day now.
