One of the really cool things about you spouse or significant other being interested in recreational cycling is having pairs of bikes that while are not identical (or even the same make) have specs or performance that makes them a good match.
Nice weather the last few days, has seen my wife and I out on our local country roads....

Murray Monterey and Glide Deluxe.

1961 Fairlady, 1959 Corvette. The only real difference that I could find was in the headbadges. The 59 is bigger and the same color as the bike, the 61 is a generic Schwinn.

The men's Collegiate has been a favorite rider for a few years now, so when I saw the women's on Craigslist (or Marketplace, I forget now) I had to grab it. Still haven't gotten my wife into riding, but I haven't given up hope...
