Week 27
Thanks for stopping by for Week 27 of 100 Word Wednesdays!
I’ve addressed this before, but many of you have asked where my moniker ‘Bikurgurl’ originated. In my pre-marriage life, I was an avid bicyclist/wannabe motorcyclist. My husband put a stop to the motorcycle dreams (too dangerous, we both lost friends to motorcycle accidents); a downhill biking faceplant put an end to my crazy mountain biking days. As I get older, I’ve had to trade out the downhill bike for a cruiser. I don’t get out as much as I’d like to, but I do still love to ride my bicycle {insert Freddie Mercury!}.
*Warning — Naked Bicyclists — so I moved it to the bottom of the post; pass on it if you’ll be offended!
You’ve all been so much fun to read and it’s been a joy to learn and grow with you all 🙂 I enjoy ‘bumping’ into you on other social media, especially Instagram, where you’ll find we have our next weeks’ image prompt {straight from my Instagram feed!}. I’d love to follow you if you’re on — so pop over and say hi!
Thank you for being here ❤

How to participate? A few guidelines as we begin….
- Simply check my feed, or search the reader, for the 100WW or tag #100WW, post each Wednesday. I’ll also be posting on my Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook Feeds.
- Write your submission on your blog, Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook Feed and ping back to the weekly blog post. Feel free to use the image provided or your own. Please do credit the artist whose image we use – Links provided!
- I have not enabled automatic pingbacks due to a plethora of spam messages attempting to link up. Do feel free to also continue posting your links and I will enable your pingbacks as I check my blog. Thank you for understanding!!
- I’ll provide a Weekly Summary, or Windup, of posts on or by Tuesday; take the opportunity to read and comment on your fellow bloggers posts {keeping in mind to give each other grace and space}. I’ll try to read them all, but I can’t post your submission in the Weekly Wind-Up if you haven’t posted before the end of the weekend but I’ll do my best to catch ’em all!
- Have fun! I enjoy reading your challenge submissions 🙂

I do believe that would deter most from ever riding a bike ever again.

🙂 Well, not forever, but it did nearly end my downhill biking thrill rides. I still love to bike, but prefer now to stay on the paved greenway surfaces 🙂

I shall confess, my one experience driving a racing bike proved most exhilarating.
