I think it's a good looking ride and I'm glad that you put so much emphasis on her having the ultimate decision. I wish you and Mrs. Kimbercop many happy miles!

That seat angle is going to be REALY uncomfortable and its going to have her falling off the seat. Adjust it so that the nose is level with the back as a starting point. You may need to re-adjust the seat height if its already been set.
Oh and good luck.

Already done. Noticed it during the photo shoot and have leveled it off. Will see how it goes with her tomorrow.

Oooo...pretty....
BTW Kimbercop, if your wife wants a slow-ish female riding partner to go riding with, I'd like to volunteer myself! I'm always looking for new riding partners. PM me if you think she might be interested.

Weather in Chicago has finally turned decent. We plan on riding later this afternoon due to some prior commitments of hers. Probably just 10 or so, but we'll see.
