I don't think that I will ever turn my wife into a REAL cyclist. She likes to do other things for fitness.
But here's the real problem. I got her a bike. She insists that she be able to touch the ground, flatfooted while staying on the saddle. She has short legs, so this requires that the saddle be All the way down. When she rides, it looks like she is going to knee herself in the chin! She can't get any power out of her legs and gets tired easily, but will not change. It's almost painful to watch.
