    Yeah, as much as I like the bike I'm leaving it up to her to get in the saddle. A few short rides with the kids will be a good start. She's fit and likes to use the treadmill at the gym so she'll be up to speed in no time if she enjoys it.

    The red bling is gorgeous! You gave me an idea for a little additional blue bling if I can find it...

    Gorgeous bike and sweet for you to do for her! My husband prodded me a bit into road biking - though I was very hesitant and stubbornly wanted a hybrid - but we have been having such a ball riding together!

    Thanks for the compliments. I'm still tempted to get red anodized headset spacers once I fine tune the fit.

    She suggested a ride next week. May drop the kids at Grandma's and have a just the two of us. There's also a little group at church that does an easy ride on Wednesdays. Might be fun and social.

    Very nice!

    It will be nice to get a sitter and ride together. It's important to make time for yourselves. You were a couple before you were a family. Just don't pressure her too much.
