Got the wife a new bike

Thanks to everyones input we ended up getting her a Specialized Vita. She didn't have the 'aha' moment someone else described, but that was because it was the first one she tried and didn't want to try another after that.

Signer her up for the Hotter'n'Hell ride when we got home so we are all set!

Thanks again for the info & suggestions all.

Mark
