So, the 58cm Roubaix seems to work well. Fortunately, she has proportionately long arms, so her reach is just fine. It's more of a reach out than it is down, but she doesn't have to stretch out too much, and the bars are plenty high enough for her. She looks like Chrissy Wellington on a bike, only she's attractive

Here is a picture from last week in Bend. This was about 25 miles into a 45 mile ride, her longest yet. Soon thereafter it started pouring rain, followed by thunder and lightning. It ended up being an epic ride, and my wife's first burly effort. She never once complained on the ride. At the end, I told her how impressed I was that she took it all in stride. Her response to me was simply; "Rule #5". I love that woman.

Thumbs up!
She can take most of those damn rules with a grain of salt though, if at all. And let's be truthful, most of us would have bagged it knowing that a storm was rolling in.
