Setting off from their front door in Somerset, they climb onto a flame-orange tandem bicycle named Edith and begin a 1,300-mile journey through England, France, and Spain. What follows is not just a cycling trip, but a gradual reworking of a long marriage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the miles pass, they navigate more than hills and headwinds. There are small disagreements, shared routines, unexpected kindness from strangers, and the steady rhythm of pedalling side by side. Along the way, their reflections deepen-on identity, independence, and the shifting roles that come when family life grows quieter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTold with gentle humour and grounded honesty, and occasionally interrupted by Edith's own observations, this is a story about learning to travel together again-literally and emotionally-after decades of shared life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor anyone wondering what lies beyond the busy years of parenting and work, \u003cem\u003eTime to Change Gear\u003c\/em\u003e offers a companionable reminder: you don't need to start over to begin again-you just need to keep pedalling.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Clark,Nicky Clark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1067664114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781067664114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris \u0026amp; Nicky Clark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/02\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d","brand":"Chris Clark","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48874622877951,"sku":"9781067664114","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/time-to-change-gear-chris-clark-9781067664114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
