That's pretty cool... pretty much DONE. DO IT. Buy the bike. Bike prices will be higher in 2009 (my boss already has the pricing from companies) due to shipping increases (because of gas) to make/distribute the bikes. Peak year for buying; technology of women's specific (it's NOT just a paint job difference, let me tell you!!!!!!) and pricing value. You won't regret it. You know you won't! You don't have to ride with your husband if he's being bossy.
(It used to be just a paint job difference. Now they modify the geometry, top tube length is shorter, shorter cranks, narrower bars, women's specific saddle to accomodate for wider hips so you're bearing your weight on your bones as opposed to soft tissue...) I'll help you pick a bike. You won't regret it. Your husband can teach your basic maintenance or do it for you.
