We had a great time. 

That's awesome!

My wife was very slow, the slowest on the track. 

Who cares!?  You're there to have fun.  A couple of more track days and that'll change.

October is breast cancer awareness month.  I highly recommend taking a survivor to the track as a way to
show your pink.  It feels good.  Hell, I'm even getting things done at work today.

We had a great time.  My wife was very slow, the slowest on the track.  I don't think she got over 40 mph, but the great thing was that no one complained.  In fact, we both got lots of encouragement and helpful tips.  I was faster but still was the next slowest.  It was a great way to celebrate 6 months of cancer free and my 60th birthday.  

Congrats!  That's awesome.  

It's not about how fast you go.  It's about having fun while you're at the track and then feeling more comfortable on the streets afterward.  Not faster, just more comfortable.  And for you two, it's mostly about celebrating important milestone(s).  Congrats to both of you, and I wish you a long life.

I don't know about anyone else, but I ride slower on the street since I started doing track days.
