She was quite an interesting woman - I recall meeting her at an MOA rally about 10 years ago or so, and at various ones since. A million miles on a motorcycle - any motorcycle - is quite an achievement, and she had plenty of interesting stories to tell. That is one of the things that I find most interesting at motorcycle rallies, particularly BMW rallies - meeting new people and hearing their stories. Much more interesting than flaming cars, stunt riders, sweepstakes giveaways, free beer, or wet t-shirt contests.
OK, I put the free beer one in there just to see if you were paying attention! Rest in peace Ardys!
