The surest way to know if you love someone or hate them is to travel with them ... on a tandem.
Lifestyle journalist Catherine Pringle has no idea what she is taking on when she says yes to a tandem cycling holiday with her boyfriend Nick. A complete cycling novice, Catherine sees the time alone with him as an opportunity to mend their troubled relationship. But Nick is a goal-oriented adventure-travel expert who never does anything by halves, and Catherine soon finds herself committed to a summer-long 4,000-kilometre Tour de France.
Catherine thinks she knows what she wants from life. But a freak accident on the tandem changes everything and she is forced to confront a troubling issue would she rather travel through life alone or as part of a Peloton of Two? And, if the latter is true, then who is her ideal tandem partner?
Peloton of Two Andrew Bowie Books
Starts when you get on the cycle. A story search, change, transformation and redemption; and while well researched, the story is simply written leaving only an allusion to the potential of the complexityof the story. As a result it misses the color and excitement that one might expect from riding through France for the summer except in the imagination of the reader.Product details

Peloton of Two Andrew Bowie Books Reviews
Read it twice and read between the lines to enjoy the subtleties you missed the first time.
A wonderfully crafted story combining the beauty of France with the challenge of relationships. Bowie really knows how to write realistic dialogue. A pleasure to read.
To be honest I am not that interested in romantic novels or cycling. But this book is very well written. The characters are well developed and you get a real feel for France. The plot is nicely tied up at the end; happy endings all round. I can even see a sequel here; it would be fun to see what Katie does next). This is a pleasant and easy read without too much taxing of the brain.
I worked with Andrew Bowie for a number of years and would never have guessed he had this story in him. Very enjoyable and I learned so much about cycling and France. Loved every minute of the book.
I enjoyed the conceit of a tandem bike trip as a metaphor for life. I thought the characters were well developed and the plot twisted compellingly. A darned good read.
You don’t have to be a cyclist to enjoy this funny, light-hearted romance set in rural France. Catherine, the instantly likeable heroine, is smart and kind-hearted – but it doesn’t seem to be helping her relationship with her boyfriend, extreme adventurer Nick. In fact, Catherine'’s tolerance might just be a terminal case of ambivalence. Struggling to overcome her natural wimpiness, she agrees to cycle around France with Nick in an attempt to strengthen their bond. But life is its own journey and things don’t turn out quite as planned… The major and minor characters all sparkle, especially the passionate and eccentric Balchoffers and the terrifying Uncle George. Along the way we get to visit historic sites and villages, see the scenery and glean snippets of wisdom about life, relationships and the importance of travel. A great holiday read.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was entertaining and full of memorable characters and scenes. I especially enjoyed the additional information that was included in the author's website. It was fun to read about the research that he did while writing this book and to read additional blog entries from the main character, Catherine, that were not included in the book. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a light, romantic and fun story!
