Thank you all for the welcome. As for the wife learning, I wasn't going to teach her, but she refuses to go to the class until she can ride at least a little bit. So I've been familiarizing her with the bike, and I've got her toodling around the front yard in first gear. She basically needs to realize it's not as scary as she's convinced herself it will be. I don't want to put anything in her head that will need to be relearned, so I've kept it to confidence building primarily. She's got much better natural balance than I do so I don't think it'll be long before she's confident enough to go to class. I'd like to go with her, but I'm licensed already, and at $300 a pop for the course, and short funds, I'm gonna have to pass until a later date...
