She did 357,658MLS(572,253KMS) on her 1993 R1100RS.She is in the background,becouse she does not like too much publicity.She is doing a marvelous job as a bike driver.She is great.

Voni is very well known in the BMW and broader motorcycle community. She, along with the late Ardis Kellerman became the first two women to ride over one million miles on BMWs about two years ago. Voni is anything but in the background. She is a strong advocate for motorcycling and youth training, and contributes often to the Owners News.

+1 Kevin Anyone that has been to a BMW National notices that a core group of people seem to be involved in everything and Voni is definately one of that group. With all the things she does for the MOA and other MC groups then add on all the miles she rides one has to wonder - is she human?. Whatever she is (human or robot) she's a great attribute to the BMW community.

It should not be overlooked that one important factor in Voni being able to ride all those miles is her husband Paul. Paul is a technical writer for the Owners News and is as close to an expert on BMW motorcycles as there is. You don't ride a bike for nearly 400,000 miles without someone doing the hard mechanical work. Voni was a teacher, and while she was out riding in the summer months (nearly 80,000 miles one summer), Paul was at home preping another bike for her to ride when she passed by their home. As a result poor Paul only has somewhere in the area of 800,000 miles on BMWs.

I fell on ice once too. Ice & motorcycles don't usually mix all that well. Plus the most natural position for any motorcycle is laying on it's side.
