I will definitely keep it in mind. I started thinking that I need to find some organized rides I can get the wife interested in (she definitely doesn't want to do D2R2 due to gravel). The only big problem is it's at night which can screw up your schedule when you regularly wake up at 5:30am.
She wants to do PanMass - which seems to be hugely popular - but I'm not willing to deal with the fundraising. Suggestions welcome.

Yeah, for sure *looks at calendar* (and out the window) - about time! Looks like Spring will finally come next week, opening the (comfortable) riding season.
