  • Meet our new WIMA World officers

    I’m honoured to be able to introduce our new WIMA World officers:

    International President Zara Strange:

    Zara has served the past 3 years as International Vice-President and during this time she took sole responsibility for organising the agenda and minutes of the ICNP meetings. In addition, she organised all our old agenda records, minutes and other archived documents that my predecessor, Claudia Fehrer, handed over. It is all nice and tidy on WIMA’s cloud space, available to all National Presidents. Her contributions to our meetings and discussions, and her advice, have been invaluable.  Those who know Zara will know that she has a warm heart, a clear head, and is dedicated to WIMA and women’s motorcycling – it’s no surprise that she was recognised with the Ellen Pfeiffer Award a couple of years back. I know that she will lead us well and I’m excited about WIMA’s future! 

    International Vice-President Mihaela Hodivoianu:

    Mihaela is the founder of WIMA Romania, one of our younger divisions at only 3 years old, but already thriving, well-established and extremely active with get-togethers and projects running throughout the year. Mihaela has also dedicated a great length of time to the difficult task of updating our constitution. We are delighted to have such an energetic and skilled woman as IVP. 

    PR Officer Liv Seuring:

    Liv is known from her role as an admin in the WRWR, an achievement for which we awarded her honorary lifetime membership in WIMA. Among other things, she was working with PR and she has lots of ideas to take with her to her new role in WIMA. We are thrilled to have someone with her experience and skillset in our team! 

    PR Officer Léa Schaetzlé:

    Léa is one of our newer members and fully passionate about WIMA. She works with PR professionally and she is multi lingual – we look forward to seeing her working with Liv in what is a fast-moving and challenging area.

    Onwards and upwards,

    Åsa, former IP, now “just” a member 🙂

    Greetings from Wilnsdorf 🙋🏻‍♀️🌻☀️😎🏍

    In the most beautiful weather and with a little bit of sadness in the heart, some WIMA women arrived in Wilnsdorf. It’s just nice to see that at least a few girls managed to meet up. With distance and mask but with a lot of love ❤ Great that members could meet up for a day tour at least. 👍 The WIMA community is just great, also in difficult times 🥰😍

    Ganz herzliche Grüße aus Wilnsdorf 🙋🏻‍♀️🌻☀️😎🏍

    Bei schönstem Wetter und mit ein wenig Wehmut im Herzen sind einige Wimafrauen in Eigenregie nach Wilnsdorf angereist. Es ist einfach nur schön wenigstens ein paar Mädels zu sehen. Mit Abstand und Maske aber mit viel Herz ❤ Toll, dass auch Frauen nur für eine Tagestour vorbeikommen.👍Die Wima Community ist einfach spitze, auch in schwierigen Zeiten 🥰😍

     Thanks Andy, WIMA Germany for the photos and text!

  • Welcome Susi, new national president of WIMA Germany

    Welcome Susi, new national president of WIMA Germany

    Verena Reindl has served as national president of WIMA Germany for 18 years, which is no small feat – Germany being one of our largest divisions. During the international rally in Castleton we had the pleasure to thank her for her service and welcome her successor to the post, Susi Metzner.

    Again I was very happy to have Jane Spiegel (to the left) on stage for the German translation. Verena did her welcome speech bilingually of course.

    On a personal note, Verena is the person who I have known the longest in WIMA World. We met way back at the European rally in Sweden 2005, which was my first. There we and a couple of other members spent a day riding, exploring the area and eating our fill of cake from a cake buffet for lunch. Verena, I wish you the very best and hope that you will continue to enjoy WIMAs rallies near and far!

    Welcome Susi, I look forward to working with you! We will meet again soon, when you host the international WIMA rally in Germany next summer.

  • Welcome to the team Nicole!

    Welcome to the team Nicole!

    Nicole Peters, member of WIMA Germany, was elected WIMA’s new and first ever Social Media Manager at the international rally in Castleton, England.

    She has been working with the social media accounts for her home division for some time and you might remember that she was the very talented creator of WIMA Germany’s winning contribution to the 3rd international WIMA Day video competition. We are very pleased to welcome her to our group of WIMA international officers!

    This is Nicole, to the left, receiving the exclusive 3rd WIMA Day T-shirt. Jane Spiegel, president of WIMA Austria, in the middle, kindly provided German translations to my double announcement.
