Local author Alenka Vrecek, owner of Tahoe Teas, has written a book, “She Rides: Chasing Dreams Across California and Mexico” available for preorder now. Determined to awaken her dying spirit and heal her battered body, Vrecek loaded her mountain bike with 50 pounds’ worth of camping gear and set off on a 2,500-mile journey from Lake Tahoe, along the Sierra Nevada Mountain range to the tip of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula, alone.
What followed was a transformational journey of love, hope and resilience. Vrecek tells her story in a voice stripped of self-pity and infused with humor. “She Rides” is a wake-up call to unearth and follow your deeply buried dreams — and reclaim your life.
The book will be released in June 2023, pre-order the book on Amazon. | amazon.com
