Longtime columnist Jennaye Derge navigates life like a steep technical descent strewn with ridiculously inconvenient rocks. Only, the rocks are exercising and grocery shopping. A series of jobs slinging coffee and newspapers. Dates in a world of bros. And, well, being a woman in a time that makes that challenging enough all on its own. But through it all, she has her bicycle: her baby, her outlet, her teacher. These hilarious and heartfelt short essays show us how one woman learns to kick life into gear—even while laughing through the tears.
Printed on 50# creme paper with a matte laminate paperback cover. 170 pages. Release date: May 24, 2022.
“A whimsical, humorous and endearing ride, proving that – at least in the bike-crazed town of Durango – a girl’s first true love is her bike. Beyond clean commuting, it’s part adventure rig, part escape pod and part personal therapist. With a good patch kit, there’s nothing Jennaye and her trusty steed can’t do.”
