My wife and I are riding partners, have been ever since we started riding. I'm stronger and faster than she is, she has much more endurance than I do. So things seem to even out. I'll wait for her on the tops of hills and often she'll tow me in her draft for the long haul. The yin and yang of our ridings styles work out.

I maintain our bikes, and I make real sure everything is *just* to her liking. And she *lets* me buys whatever I want/need because she knows it make us both happy.
