The 2014 year for valentine Rossi is very important for his whole career after suffered on the 2 years to tame the Red bike and comeback to his baby on 2013 and not have very good synergy on the first year bike but on this year almost in every race held by, The Doctor always able to put himself and the baby on the podium even though we can’t see his smile yet on the highest podium.

But valentine Rossi not only waiting without doing anything for give all his fans and this sport  his smile on the highest podium, he and team really working on it. Change and learn the new style of his ride for his new baby, Find the best setting for got great synergy with the tyre, knowing and understanding how to get the good position in Qualifying practice and so many on. 

His charisma still attached tightly on him self, no riders at this moment can able to even near by to his charismatic, lot of other riders having a great talent but no body can have complete package style as Valentino Rossi has, in my view. Magical of Valentino Rossi is so incredible.

And finally the time we waiting just came, this victory more than only victory for Valentino Rossi, not only because with this win made him able to break new record to be the first riders who achieve 5,000 points across all the classes, but this win also his first win in Misano since Misano 2009 and it more special because the first win of him with his baby this years happened on his home race  at the Gran Premio TIM di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini or we more familiar to called this circuit with Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli and as we know clearly how close the friendship between both of him and how the way Valentino Rossi always remembering his friend in every single activity he doing. As the Misano is his home town race also the spectator who almost all of them came for cheer and supporting him of course made the crowd getting wild and incredible happy with this winning.

Hilarious and full of joy for all his fans around the world and also for this sport, we never boring to always look the way he ride and the way he celebrate all the victory he get. Why it looks so mega ? … the answer is totally easy and sure, because the one who get it is the magical of MotoGP with the name of Valentino Rossi. The one who always able to change from Victory be big spirit for everybody who following this sport. He not only riding his baby but he share all passion he has for this sport, the love  he has for all his fans and the high skill of Valentino Rossi on the way he reach this win.

Now after very great and sensational winning on his career, he began to stringing what would be achieved this year after his next 2 years contract he already had with Yamaha. And as we know Valentino Rossi always so humble and realistic, We already know to put goal this year to reach 10th time World champion is not possible due the strong of Marc Marquez with his Honda this year, so he put to using the momentum winning in Misano be the booster to be Runner up for this year, due his world standing score only different one point with the Spanish rider Dani Pedrosa. And from all of it also to be able to put more target for the next year and with what we look for, nothing impossible when we do everything with all passion we have, focus, keep trying and believe. 

For the entire ideals goal that we want to achieve, we always need passing through the journey that requires patience and confidence. When everyone doubted and scoffed at what we dream about, as long as we believe and strive, in some point always we will find the key to open the door, there is always a hammer to destroy the thick wall, because in every dark in the night we will always find the bright of morning sun -dsulistiyo-

Luigi Taveri Up Close and Personal



Finding the biography of Luigi Taveri is very easy on the internet, as we know he was a Swiss former motorcycle road racer, furthermore he was one of the greatest racing motorcyclists of all the time. And here are some of his great achievements, and some stories that I got directly from him.

Luigi´s racing career started in the late 1940-ies, first as sidecar passenger of his brother Hans, and soon as a solo racer. His first world championship start was at the 1954 French GP. He became an MV Agusta factory rider in 1955. He won several GP in the 1950-ies and became vice-world champion in the 125 ccm class in 1955 and 1957 and in the 250 ccm class in 1956, but he is most remembered for his time at Honda, where he became world champion three times in 1962, 1964 and 1966. He was an important part of the legendary 1960-ies Honda factory team, and he became a lifetime friend with Hondas founder Soichiro Honda. With his small stature he was Hondas specialist for the small classes and when Honda decided to build the ultimate bike for the 125 ccm class, the engineers always kept him in mind. So he won his last world championship title on the famous five cylinder 125, for most specialist the mechanically most advanced motorcycle of all times. He stopped racing at the end of 1966, as an undefeated world champion. It was even close to being double world champion in his final year, but as Honda decided not to race at the last round of the world championship at Fuji due to arguments with the Japanese federation, he lost the 50 ccm title to Suzukis Hans Georg Anscheidt.

He finished his world championship career with 3 world titles, 5 vice-world championships, 7 3rd places in the final world championship standings, 30 GP wins, and 89 world championship podiums. But beside that he is the only man in the history of the world championship who scored world championship points in all 6 classes: in 50 ccm, 125 ccm, 250 ccm, 350 ccm, 500 ccm and sidecars!

With all his achievement and all the passion to motorsports we can say that he is deserved the title of a living legend of this sport. But it were not his sportive achievements alone, that made him a legend, but his friendly and straight nature, his love to the fans and his wife Tilde, who followed him for all his world championship career. To have a chance knowing him from very close, it was a really wonderful and unforgettable moment for me.

When I visited Switzerland at the end of May 2014, I had the chance meet him directly and we had a short touring bike trip together. At first, to be honest, I couldn’t imagine a rider who was born on 19 September 1929, which means he was almost 85 years old. But when he is sitting on the bike wearing his helmet and the engine is turned on, you will never imagine that he is that old. Especially because the way he rode on the road of the Sattelegg, a small mountain pass near his hometown of Samstagern. On this road with a lot of ups and downs and also sharp corners following the mountain side, he really showed me the talent he has.

Luigi Taveri and Me take some rest after the lovely bike trip
After we rode around for 50 Km, we arrived to a restaurant on top of the pass with a very beautiful view. And we stopped for a while and enjoy some food there with very friendly conversation. One of the questions I asked him was,

Me: “I really enjoy feeling with you, riding your bike and also I knew you from an article on the internet that you are very expert in riding. What do you think, was it more difficult and fun being a rider in your time or to be rider on today?”
Luigi: "hmmm (with very wise face) …To be honest… (smiling), we can’t compare that because in every era they are different kind of the difficulties and different kind of fun. At my time, we din’t have good safe tracks, almost all tracks we used were made of public roads what means the safety factor is very small. We also didn’t have so fast bikes with such a lot of electronics, so all we did was riding with our skills and capability to be fast and to be safe. Today as we can see safety of riders is more guaranteed because they are wearing good leather suits and ride on the safe tracks. But at present riders need to have high skills and talent to control the bikes that have higher speeds and some parts are controlled by electronics. So like I said before the difficulties and the fun are very different and all must be very special because we ride our bike with love, feel and passion” (smiles and he looks like imagining the time he rode long time ago)
Me:”Ahh...I see, I understand and thank you for explaining me very clear and in detail” (I replied amazed and with an awesome feeling)

Later we talked about the things he was doing after he announced his retirement from professional bike racing. He opened a car body repair and paint workshop that became the best address of this trade in the Zürich area. He explained that now he is retired, but he is still busy with his house and garden and he is still restoring old bikes.

Luigi, Me and Tilde, spending happy time at their home
After we finished our food we rode back to his home. I can call myself very lucky because I could visit his home and meet with the very lovely wife of Luigi. We were sitting in the TV room of Luigi, and I could feel how warm Luigi and his wife were welcoming me to talk about so many things. He also explained to me that he already thought of retiring in 1960, after MV Agusta withdrew from the small classes, but as his wife saw how unhappy he was, she wrote to Honda and asked for a bike. And this is how the most important part of his career started. It was very interesting for me when he told me the story of his five cylinder Honda, the bike he used in 1966 in a very enthusiastic way.

Honda  rc149 125cc 5 cylinder &  Mv Agusta 125 single cylinder
Luigi: “The 5 cylinder Honda was incredibly beautiful and I love the sound so much. To be honest the noise is very loud but it’s so beautiful to hear, even it has damaged my hearing and this is why I have to wear two hearing aids now (tell me with his smile). But it’s no problem regarding the fun and the happiness I got from that bike.”

Luigi and Me in front of his trophy collection
He still has that bike in his workshop and also we can find a lot of trophies in his home that he got during his career. For me, the many trophies he has in his living room are enough to make me understand what a great rider he was, but as he explained to me: “It’s only a little part, I still have more in my private museum.” But as at that moment It was already so late, so I didn’t have the chance to look at all his trophy collections.

His wife Tilde is the most lovable and humble person I ever met, she told me a lot of very happy memories of her and Luigi. And it’s really touching to hear and to realize how big the love still is between both of them. How sincere support they give to each other. Even now I still can feel very clearly how beautiful relation they have.

Sometime we wonder when we meet people who can live very happy with their love of life. And the lessons that I can take from the visit are when you love something and you do all of that sincerely and full of heart, whatever trouble you find in the middle of that, very sure you can pass it in an easy way. And when we love someone and decided to be together we don’t need to make two people be one, because it will be impossible. It is better to keep it being two persons but always support each other to find the happiness from both sides. That’s the love you can work for.



Special Thanks for #IP as his kindness to make this lovable moment happened

The journey of Cal Crutchlow for 2015

August 2014 bring shocking news about the journey of Cal Crutchlow in MotoGP championship for the next year. After the confirmed of Cal Crutchlow a week before in World Ducati Week, finally the rumor about the British rider will split with Ducati just come true. And officially Ducati Corse announced on August 2nd, that Ducati Corse and Cal Crutchlow terminate contract a head of 2015. And the two factory Ducati Team riders for 2015 will now be Andrea Dovizioso and Andrea Iannone.



We can say now the dream Italian team just made for, with the Italian Bike and also Italian riders. As we know after difficult time for the Ducati and now they can see the good light with Andrea Dovizioso there and also Iannone who we all know that he riding very good and consistent with the Pramac Ducati.

All that words above is not mean that Cal Crutchlow not riding well in Ducati but as we know Cal who always rode Japan bike and move to European bike must be need some more adapting to knowing better how the way the bike work, but sometime time go so fast and can't wait more. And the question is where Cal Crutchlow will ride for 2015 then?

Not long to wait after the official web of LCR Honda announced that the 29 years old British rider Cal Crutchlow  will ride with them for next year, so this announcement also close all the rumor than Cal Crutchlow will ride for Suzuki if finally this team will rejoin in MotoGP for 2015.


The one we need to wait is about where Stefan Bradl will ride for 2015, young rider, talented and also have a good chance for 2014 even though we knowing that he got some crashed and not have any podium yet, but he always make some close chance to podium. Need to wait for the news of this soon and also still curious where Jorge Lorenzo finally will ride even we all very sure he will stay with Yamaha.

Life is always mystery, we never know what will happen until it happen. So just thinking and smiling with what we have today and always do the best with this time we have because the next day will come without we had excepted, just go through with that and always try reach the best.

Valentino Rossi Precious Moment in Mugello 2014



As we all know, Mugello Race 2014 is Valentino Rossi’s 300th ride on Grand Prix and he got the 3rd podium after epic race from 10th place on the start, and as we know also, that Valentino Rossi always have a thousand way to celebrate his victory and he also always have a lot of way to make all his fans around the world got the same happiness as he feels after having a great race.

We ever saw the interesting celebrations by the 9th time world champion in media, not only that celebration we can see on TV, but also sometimes Valentino Rossi has his own way to celebrate even without any camera or media around, and what he did really touching and show how big heart he has for all fans who loved him.

First time I saw a very touching celebration of Valentino Rossi was in Mugello 2012 and at that moment he rode the Ducati and as we know he did not get  any podium there, but Valentino Rossi is always has a way to make his fans happy with his kindly smile. But as I don’t have any documentation photo of it, so I just can tell that what he did in Mugello 2012 with one of his unhealthy fans who at the moment came with the fans’ father was really incredibly touching my heart. Kindly beautiful hearts of Valentino Rossi clearly showed at that time. 

And the second time was just happened on June 1st 2014 again in Mugello Italy. When Valentino Rossi on podium we heard very clearly how all spectators who came there shouting and cheering for Valentino, After the fence of the tribune opened and all fans coming to the track was really awesome view that we can’t find in any other circuit of MotoGP. Spectacular atmosphere of Mugello.

And after the podium ceremony, Valentino has so many interviews, so all fans were waiting outside his box. Some of them behind the fence and some of them who got luckiness can waiting very near with the Valentino box. It’s quite a long waiting there until finally Valentino Rossi came and all fans gave big applause to them and Valentino Rossi directly walked to upstairs of their box to take a little rest after.

While Valentino Rossi take a rest, all fans still patiently waiting outside and hope can get a chance to take a photo together or maybe close nearly beside him. On there also waiting three fans of Valentino Rossi who were sitting on the wheelchairs, they also have a same dream to be able to meet with their Idol. And not long after that Flavio (VR46 Fan club Official) coming out from the Yamaha box and bring the trophy of Valentino Rossi, but the surprise one was when he handed that trophy to the guys on the wheelchair and that make the three of them so happy and also not believe that can able to touch the precious trophy of Valentino Rossi. We can see the sparkle in their eyes. A beautiful moment.

look his smile,we can feel his humble heart - dsulistiyo -
But the beauty of it does not stop there, surprisingly Valentino Rossi going down from his box and come very friendly to them and gave smile and hold them one by one. This is the amazing of Valentino Rossi, how the way he share happiness is so incredibly touching. He didn’t do such a wonderful thing for exposure in media; Valentino Rossi really did it with sincerely and with love and humility.

He shows us, how to act when we had to be great. 

Because there is nothing nobler than continuously divide to spread happiness and love, even though we have been on top and achieve our success. Success will never feel so wonderful if we can’t share the meaning of the success to other. -dsulistiyo-

I was shacking too much saw this touching moment

Mugello 2014 when party just begin

This time the race went very well and more than we excepted before and also this is very special for me because I wrote it in media center of  Mugello, one of my circuit dream to visit.

For 6 of motogp circus was happened in Mugello and Jorge Lorenzo did the race very impressive, he got good start, jumped to first place for almost all race and too bad that he can't manage it until finish line, not because he not able to did it but because we need to realize that bike of Marc Marquez is very fast and also Marc Marquez rode the bike very well even though in almost every corner he was shacking with the bike, but finally we need to give a standing applause to him, who able won the race for 6th without anyone can stole for him, but I also want to gave a thousand respect to Jorge Lorenzo who already push hard to able stolen the 1st position, it's not worked successful for Mugello but we still have lot of race and it will goes like this nothing can we say than race will be very interesting and make lot of fun

As we know Valentino Rossi finished on 3th after very difficult qualifying and warming up. We all at that time totally worried what will happened on the race due time between warming up practice and race was so short. But suddenly after the warming up done the team can adjust the gear box and fix it in very well and make all the thing goes very well.

Valentino Rossi did very great start but got a little obstacle due all riders of course when did a great start. But move him to 6th place just awesome and after that little by little he overlap other riders and made him on 3rd place and force him to race by himself until finished the lap of Mugello. 

He can't joint with the party with Jorge Lorenzo and Marc Marquez but we can't close eyes being 3rd podium from riders who start from 10th with gearbox problem just show again to us how incredible Valentino Rossi is.

He just let us know again to understand about something we can reach in anyhow even we will find something difficult in the front but with believe and patient nothing impossible to reach after. That Valentino Rossi, that's why he has a million fans who love him so much.

Valentino Rossi for MotoGP Le Mans 2014

Le Mans is host for 5th round of MotoGP and this time they gave us very great show on this season. As we know every riders did very well and very fast in qualifying practice. And Marc Marquez again and again got his 5t time pole position. And also again and again he got 1st podium also for 5th time.

Battle for 1st place -Pic by YamahaMotoGP
He so talent and his speed are very fast. The bike is totally unstoppable. Marquez made a mistake on the start line so he little bit behind in the early. But with his power full bike he can very easy to overtake rider one by one in front him. Until Marquez arrived in battle for 1st place and on 16 laps to go he won  the battle with his idol Valentino Rossi. Marquez who very young and strong with his fastest bike got the 1st place with little bit wide ride from Valentino and Valentino Rossi trying hard to chase back but Valentino Rossi know well the limit of his baby M1 and also the soft tyre he used already getting difficult to control due the asphalt surface start too hot.

Do you hear what the name they shout for ? Vale...Vale.. Vale..
But from the race we can conclude very clearly, who is the one made this championship very interesting to watch for. And no doubt the one and only who can make it is Valentino Rossi. Valentino Rossi after started the race from 5th place and with little bit crowded with other bike he can manage well to passing rider one by one with very smooth and clever maneuver in every corner. Only need 2 laps for 9th time world championship to got his 2nd position and need one more lap again for him on the 1st position until finally he need to accept to finished on 2nd place. When he on podium with Marc Marquez and Alvaro Bautista, we can't doubt the one rider who still have so much love from spectator on this sport is  Valentino Rossi, we can see and hear it from the crowd who cheer Vale's name even he just got 2nd podium.
Valentino Rossi the greatest -pic by YamahaMotoGP

But this time 2nd place of Valentino Rossi was very special on his bike career because he just made history being 1st rider who can take 150 primer class podium and today in Le Mans race it be his 299 times he rode his bike in Grand Prix. Valentino Rossi is Valentino Rossi with whatever the result he got, he always able to share the happiness with all fans, team and this championship. And the one very important in my view is when he celebrate his 2nd place with our friend who always in our heart Marco Simoncelli. He look to the sky with hand up and smile, seemed to discribe "This podium for you too Marco". I sometime don't understand when small group of people saying bad thing about Vale and said that Vale only nice in front of camera. How pity for all of them who think like that because  it's totally not true.
For you Marco Simoncelli. I know you smile from heaven #RIPSuperSic

In press conference after the race with very happy face we can see clearly that he very happy with the race and the result, he can pushing his bike and show to us some great talent he had and when he on front as always he doesn't want going alone, he starting to waiting Pedrosa and Lorenzo and also "the wonder boy" Marc Marquez. But too bad he made a little mistake in the corner, he pushed brake little bit deep and went wide so as we can see it make Marquez too easy for pass him and Valentino Rossi lost a chance to have good battle with him. But he never give up and  he will try next week in Mugello to fight with Marquez. "At this moment I can't able to win a race yet but I always there and I enjoying a lot"

Do with all your heart and you will get what you dream for
Speechless ...I can't write any word again how unbelievable Valentino Rossi is. He always honest and has a big heart to tell the truth when he did some mistake for himself and he also has very good sense of humor when he said "After Marquez overtake me I hoped he wait for me but unfortunately he's not" 

Brilliant he always brilliant and always has an idea to make every little thing be very so wonderful. Next week Italy will be the host for MotoGP and Mugello always be very special circuit in this sport. The atmosphere on there is very special and all POPOLOGIALLO always loyal to support Valentino Rossi. And  Mugello 2014 will be more special because it will be 300 time for Valentino Rossi racing on this Grand Prix and maybe he also will announce about his new contract with Yamaha. So all hope goes to Valentino Rossi, hope 1st podium can be on his hand and we can listen again Italian anthem in Italy circuit "Mugello"

Not only for Valentino Rossi about Mugello 2014 will be very special but it's also will be very special for me because for 1st time finally I will watched live on this paradise circuit of Valentino Rossi. I heard before one circuit you need to visit when you love Valentino Rossi is Mugello and I will make it. Thanks God and Thank you so much for  Valentino Rossi and all people who help me to make another one of my dreams become real.

Graziano Rossi

Everybody who loves bike sport, must be knows who is Graziano Rossi. He was start professional racing in 1979 for 250cc class and he continued to move to 500 cc class in 1980. But as he said his racing career is far from the name of success, actually he won three victories but his injured need to force him to stop this sport in 1982. So the words he put for his racing career is "short and unfortunate" 

But when he put that word for his own racing career, we can put words for his life is "long and fortune". As we know Graziano Rossi is father from the living legend, 9 times world championship and the gorgeous man on the planet "Valentino Rossi"

Racing is already part of his life so even though he can’t ride for any professional racing again but he still love to ride with his friends and sometime he ride with his amazing boy Valentino Rossi in VR46 ranch.

So many effect from Graziano who impact Valentino Rossi, as Vale said "Maybe if Graziano make another sport I wouldn't have had this passion to be a rider"  And also Valentino Rossi as we know he's one of the famous people who very humble on this earth. Vale never forget how to say thank you for Graziano as he mentioned "I was lucky ... my father raced bikes, he gave me the passion very early and I had my first bike when I was three or four years old and also because of Graziano, he make my way more easy when I started racing world because he knew a lot of people and it make me easy to find the first bike."

The humble of Valentino Rossi is very easy to see from everything on him...., his smile, his way to talk, the way he wave to fans and many more. Humble is so clear stick on him.

And that humble attitude is came from Graziano Rossi, Graziano always believe Valentino humble is the key from Valentino success. And Graziano is father who understand how to be a good father, that why he trying not so much give advice to Valentino Rossi on his career, he only gave some words with big of meaning, some of them as "Don't ever forget where you come from, once you become bigheaded because people said you are the best one and you believe with that, at that moment you are not the best anymore" Deep and lot of true meaning

See how strong the relation between them and to be honest I always love to saw them spend lot of time together. He also always tries to watch Valentino Rossi normally for Europe race, not because he doesn't want support out from Europe but because he doesn't like flying. Whatever support from father can come from every way.


From all news about Graziano I ever read in media, all I knew is about how charming this man is, and how big his impact to Valentino Rossi racing career. Just make us understand when we love Valentino Rossi of course we can't forget to always respect and love Graziano Rossi and Stefania (mother of Valentino Rossi).


And I'm who lucky enough to able to got first greeting from Graziano when first time I touch down to the paradise land of Valentino Rossi in Tavullia. If I late 0.01 second maybe I can't met him there, but universe still allow me to meet with 

Graziano Rossi and also met again in dinner time at Pizza da Rossi. And at the moment we met in front of  VR46 Fan Club Office, he so nice when said "Wow... you come from Indonesia, very long flight to be in here, Enjoy Tavullia" Awesome that awesome. Valentino Rossi totally blessed to has very lovable father as Graziano Rossi


We can be whatever as we wish but to be always exist we need to learn and know about new things everyday. World can't stop moving so we can't stop to learning ~ dsulistiyo
