In this amusing and insightful memoir about building a new relationship in middle age, a tandem bike serves as both character and metaphor. It presents an ongoing physical challenge and an arena requiring cooperation and negotiation to forge a new marriage from the remnants of previous divorces, breakups, and a death. This entertaining exploration of coupling and bike mechanics captures the complexities of creating a lasting partnership while preserving individuality. It delves into the intricate balance of personal responsibility and shared accountability, highlighting the importance of not just negotiating but embracing differences as two established lives merge. As the couple struggles to push themselves and thirty-five pounds of bike up steep hills, avoid dangerous encounters with cars, and learn to lean together through life's curves, the narrative unfolds. It offers a profound, introspective view of our interactions with significant others and provides valuable strategies for building a successful partnership. With praise for its delightful, moving, and humorous storytelling, it resonates with readers beyond cyclists, making it a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the dynamics of relationships.
