Congrats to your wife for passing and of course now the real learning starts to take place.

My wife has been riding for one year and has really taken to it.

I admit that I didn't really want her riding and hope nothing bad happens to her BUT must also admit...we've had a BLAST out riding together.

How fucking pissed are you gonna be when the old lady dumps your brand new bike?

Pissed, but the longer time goes by, the less she talks about taking it out. I give it a month and she wont ask about it anymore.

So do you think she'll just drop the idea of riding altogether??

Really I have no idea. I was shocked that she took the course to begin with. She says she doesn't want her own bike... But I don't want her to ride mine....

Just by her a small used bike for like $1k and surprise he with it one day... all ready to go, registered, tagged, everything. I'm sure she'll go out for a ride with you and maybe get really into it.

If not, sell the bike for what you bought it for and it's no huge loss. And she'll be left with a set of gear for riding 2up with you.

She already has her own gear. She got it when I bought my first bike. But you have a good idea there.
