Congratulations to you both! Having a spouse that shares the love of cycling is a big time plus. May you both have many miles and years together !!!
After 47-1/2 years here, it’s still wonderful to wake up next to my wife👍, and her support of my riding and building bicycles makes it great.

Congratulations, but I'm not surprised. I mean, you guys rode a tandem and didn't kill each other.
Is there a tougher test to pass?

Congrats.....
Can't wait to see the pics from the wedding and the bikes there (thinking back to a weeding where the groomsmen all wore orange lange ski boots, the bride arrived in a horse drawn sleigh, and everyone skied down after the ceremony)
I thinks this means N+1 is now N+2 for you

One more congratulations!
My spouse and I are approaching 20 years post-ring, so I haven't figured out anything yet as far as advice....

Wise people say that wherever you are going with your relationship/marriage, a tandem will get you there faster. That turned out to be true for me and my ex-wife and also me and my current wife.
