Richmond Park (of course!) is excellent if you want to make a day of it, and have a picnic or a pub lunch or something. And what about riding along the river to Windsor?
I think the trick is to make a date of it - include treats and incentives, keep complimenting her on how well she's doing (and how good she looks in her lycra), and go out somewhere swanky for overpriced pasta afterwards.
You might find you actually enjoy it. I took a very wobbly friend for a spin round Richmond Park a few months ago, and found I used all sorts of different muscles riding slowly for a change.
