My wife and I met in San Francisco and one of our first dates was mountain biking in Tahoe. She didn’t have a car so we rode bikes most everywhere around the city, including the Sausalito/Tiburon/ Ferry loop Gugie! Now she still enjoys riding occasionally, always the same route on her red Tommasini Tecno, but she refuses to ride with me, always by herself. She did an Ironman about 5 years ago but probably hasn’t ridden more than 20 miles at a time since.
She has always been a good sport about the bikes showing up on our doorstep.
