Hurrah! You can never have too many bikes, and new bikes are /always/
faster ;-)

The wife has succesfully convinced me not to buy $70.00 K-Mart

Smart woman :-)

and I am now considering the Jamis Cross country 2.0
This bike fits my riding style, but i would value the groupos opinion
on quality, value and alternatives. Also, is there a ladies version
with same look and feel?

No opinion on the Jamis (other than: go to the LBS, try lots of bikes
and buy the one that fist best) - but don't get too hung up on the
business of trying to find one for the missus which is the same style.
Or indeed a ladies' frame. It's not certain that both of you need the
same frame geometry, so if you both buy the bike that fits best it's
quite likely they will be entirely different bikes; many women find
that modern sloping tube MTBs are perfectly acceptable without going
for a mixte frame.

Hey, wait - have you considered a tandem?

May you have another twenty years of blissful cycling on your new
mounts :-)
