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 (mostly) funny and (always) heartfelt short essays show us how one woman learns to kick life into gear, all while laughing her way through the tears.
Sobre o autor
Jennaye Derge is a writer, photographer, and very average bicycle rider. She enjoys making mundane things a little more colorful through dirty words, stupid jokes, and, every so often, intelligent witticisms. She’s learned over the years that there is a time and a place for these things. Sometimes she cares. Oftentimes she doesn’t. Jennaye grew up in Colorado and prefers living her life as such. She loves getting after it outside on her mountain bike, skiing groomers (and the occasional powder or backcountry day), and running and climbing if she has the rare itch. She also enjoys hiding indoors, reading a book, daydreaming, and drinking coffee or tea with her dog, Calvin, snuggled next to her. She is a passionate bicycle commuter and currently the publisher of Ride Your Bike! Zine and developer of Bike Durango, an organization helping people ride bicycles more and drive cars less. You can learn about her and her projects at jennayederge.com and on Instagram @jennaye_d.
