Handlebar width for a 29er?

I'm still a little ambivalent about mountain biking. Originally I wanted us to use them as a way to get stronger for our long road rides, by using the mountain bikes to climb knarlier hills. But I did create a monster in my husband. I don't like technical at all. The dirt roads are ok. I got through Iceman with a very slow time, and we are signed up to do it again. I can't get around the dread, in fact I hope I live through it! There is one complication, the husband has possibly broken a bone in his foot so there goes my training partner. If I'm not well trained, I'm not gonna try to kill myself doing it.

It still definitely scare me to pieces. I haven't really done anything technical, either. I'd like to do Iceman this year (I have a friend who has an entry that she will likely not use due to a slow healing knee), but I won't likely have my new bike in time to do any decent training...and I'm just not comfortable riding real long on my current bike, since it's so small.
