Haha! Yes, it's my MIL's bike. We're a rare pair in that we actually love each other and work in our mutual best interests. I hit gold when I got my in-laws as family. My late father-in-law was even more wonderful, and that's saying something.
My MIL wanted a bike like ours after all the excitement 'round here. But she fell in love with Riv all by herself after calling and chatting with Miesha. Sealed the deal. My MIL is "Minnesota nice" and Miesha is cut from the same cloth. She decided to buy everything but the kitchen sink after that. She called me with her credit card and told me to "get everything you can get for my bike." Yikes. Then she called Miesha and ordered a load of hats, bandanas, clothing and other gear. I cringe to think of the bill. The mechanic said over and over how solidly made and deluxe her bike was, which thrilled her to no end. She took the photos and insisted on one with the mechanic, but there isn't one of her! I'm bringing our Rivs home this summer and we'll ride ours and hers together all over the Paul Bunyan State Trail. A family reunion, indeed.
