http://northsixty.com/author/sierra
Mrs North of 60. Just a girl who lives in the Yukon and loves to ride bikes. Look closely at the weather condition – it’s bullshit. I didn’t include one very important acronym in my last post. It wasn’t technically an oversight, I decided not to include HTFU for a couple of reasons. First of all, it’s really not mine to share. Those who follow the Velominati. For some reason I can’t seem to clip in. And yes those are cross-country ski boot covers. So why bring up HTFU now? In an ideal world I’d be ...

Mrs North of 60. Just a girl who lives in the Yukon and loves to ride bikes. Book Review – Indian Horse. As a fun game this year, I decided I would play along with Canada Reads. My desire for goal oriented reading happened to coincide with 2 short week-end trips. The first to Portland, Oregon where I was able to collect all my books from the famed Powell’s bookstore. The second to Miami, where I was able to lie on a beach for 2 days and finish all the books. That’s my Indian Horse review – pl...Pecha Kuc...

A Yukoner’s Guide to the SAD | Mrs. North of 60
http://northsixty.com/2012/a-yukoners-guide-to-the-sad
Mrs North of 60. Just a girl who lives in the Yukon and loves to ride bikes. A Yukoner’s Guide to the SAD. When you tell “Southerners” (anyone South of the 60th parallel) that you live in the Yukon, the most common response is: “Oh wow! Isn’t it cold up there? An important characteristic about SAD is that it is like a poison. The darker the day, the more infected you become – creating a progressively dangerous situation as you approach the solstice.

I GOTTS FOMO | Mrs. North of 60
http://northsixty.com/2013/i-gotts-fomo
Mrs North of 60. Just a girl who lives in the Yukon and loves to ride bikes. In an ideal world I’d be better at anticipating GOTTS, but unfortunately, I have such a nasty case of FOMO that it’s hard. What if part way up we come across a herd of beautiful caribou? Or better yet a herd of magical unicorns? What if someone is standing at the top of the climb giving away free diamonds to anyone who rides the whole thing on a fixie. And suddenly, you are agreeing to the worst idea in the history of time.

Thoughts From The Trail. For Women Who DO. Thoughts From The Trail. We saw two women in long skirts, and hike your own hike, but those just end up getting caught in the brush and pricker bushes. We saw walking wounded in less than ten miles. It was mystifying because nowadays there is so much information out there. Back in the day, we just went for it and learned the hard way. Which maybe was better, because the internet.well. 8221; Too heavy? It would be remiss of me not to point out the most ultralight...

Rapha Leggings |

For Women Who DO. I had better specify that I didn’t use these while commuting to work. My actual commute is a mile and a quarter long, and though the weather here is frequently demoralizing, I could commute in a tissue paper gown and survive if I absolutely had to. Who cares how something performs over a mile and a half? But before I get too far into this, let’s examine my commute today:. Thought it was a gravel ride, didn’t you? I finished my ride fully satisfied with these tights. So they’re...You kno...
