Welcome to Bike Forums. I think your wife would enjoy the hybrid section we have here. Maybe she can join too (hint hint) 
.
So....does your name refer to the Vette? I love muscle cars.
Ooo. But my avatar shows the wheels on my rice burner...

Okay lurking im not up to date on all the internet lingo!!! The forum looks great I hope to be on here for a while. i really like the bike riding but it seems to actually be harder on my knees than joging . I am hoping this will pass as i get use to being on the bike. It also is killing my but lol......

Get a bike computer with cadence and keep it over 60rpm, and ideally over 90rpm.

Hi there
Baton Rouge here. I've been on the board here for a couple of years. I don't ride as much as I'd like, but this forum is certainly entertaining
