Casual city\bikepath riding.

Mostly. In the situations where this is not true, I can porter said trike with my truck if needed.

3) Do they have any health or medical issue that could make using certain types of bicycles more difficult, to use?


She has some equilibrium issues, which is why I'm interested in a trike.

4) What kind of budget do they have available?

I'm not restricting the budget at this time. I need to understand the best possible options, and I'll formulate a budget around that.

5) Have they ridden before?

Years ago. The fourth bike I ever rode was her (two wheel) 3-speed. Of course, that doesn't speak to how often she ever rode it, but hey...
I kinda combined a couple of items my questions in red and your replies in black.

I would agree with Tom, a recumbent trike is probably the best bet.
