Always audacity! If you ask for a number that's too high, they are extremely unlikely to withdraw the offer. Anecdotally, a very good friend of mine was just able to negotiate a 50% increase in his starting salary in a similar-sounding situation.
Ok. I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and said "125000". Hope it wasn't too low.
