His and Hers.

His and Hers.

My wife is becoming quite the cyclist.

While we purchased her mountain bike over a year ago, she’s only recently started to put some serious miles on it. She’s becoming more confident and proficient with every ride, and her progress has been a lot of fun to watch. I’ve coaxed her into a few off-road outings this year, not all of which were entirely successful (my fault, not hers). But she’s reached the point now of being comfortable enough to try most things, so today we headed to MoMBA for her first outing there.

She did very well, as I’ve come to expect. She was cautious, as she should have been, but I was grinning the whole time as I watched her get more and more comfortable. I kept the ride short, just over 5 miles door to door, but it was enough for her to get at taste of the place, and still have fun. She was surprised that I was still having fun going so slow (for me), but any time I can introduce a new rider to the trails, I’m a happy man. So much more so when it’s my wife and best friend! I can’t wait to take her again.
