Szifra Birke (CAS’72) of Lowell, Mass., writes, “Forty-five years after my last bike ride, at age 15 to get Dairy Queen with a friend, I decided to buy a tandem for my 60th birthday. Twelve tandem-riding years later, my husband, Jay Livingston, and I wrote In Tandem: Pedaling Through Midlife on a Bicycle Built for Two (Bates & Hall, 2022), a relationship, tandem bike, and communication memoir-ish book for people in tandem at home, at work and on bikes, too.” Email her at szifra@birkeconsulting.com.
