Giovanni Copioli is the President of the Italian Motorcycle Federation. The IMF is a century old, but in the shape of a 20-year-old in full ‘Olympic’ activity. This is the primary merit to be attributed to the course of his, now double, mandate. The Federation is in action, always and ever ahead. Increasingly attentive to evolving issues. Today, in fact, it is necessary to run, to play in advance. Prevent, not cure. Being alert and perceiving every signal, even the weakest.

Once Moto Clubs used to quarrel with the Federation, and the latter with the International. Today this is no longer the case thanks to intelligence, understood in its two basic forms, literary and attitude. It is so above all thanks to the relationship between people, in offering attention and asking for collaboration, obtaining it and giving it without measure. Good people achieve good things, and so the common vision, the programme, the evolution in tune wins. The President of Italy is Vice President in the World, not by chance also for this noble reason.

FMI is Sport and Events, Pro and Amateur, a very large reality of passionate users, a frontier with the world of institutions and politics. Working well for the good of all is complicated, sometimes delicate, in any case devouring energy. So it happens that the President ends up limiting almost to the point of renunciation the passion that has motivated all this in him: riding a MOTORCYCLE!
