Two bikes two of the same computer
I have a Bontrager Ridetime and it serves my purpose well, just speed and average. I wanted to get my wife the same one but I'm wondering if they would get their signals mixed up if we ride too close together. Double speed, half speed, etc.
What's the range on a wireless unit like that?
Thanks for any insight.

I've sent in the request. 
Good point. I wonder if the manufacturers use different frequencies, like with garage door openers.
I would, but I like the one I have and it works well and it's relatively inexpensive so I'd like to stick with what I know will work if I can.
BTW, looks like we're not too far apart. (Kenosha, WI)

Fyi
I contacted Trek and they said it shouldn't be a problem so I purchased a second unit for my wife's bike. No issues at all.
