Indonesia has a long history in the world of cycling. Through the implementation of the 44th IVCA Rally 2026, Indonesia is expected to be able to show its existence and contribution in preserving classic bicycles, as well as introducing the beauty of culture and history owned by Yogyakarta. Yogyakarta, a cultural city known for its rich traditions and charm, has a close relationship with bicycles. Since the colonial era to the modern era, bicycles have been an inseparable part of the lives of the people of Yogyakarta. Not only as a means of transportation, but also a symbol of a simple and harmonious lifestyle that represents the spirit of this city. Yogyakarta has the characteristics of a city that is friendly to cyclists. Small roads in the villages, sidewalks, and alternative routes make it ideal for visiting by bicycle. The city is also home to various cycling communities, from classic onthel bicycles, folding bicycles, to mountain bikes and fixies. A cultural city in Indonesia, it is a center of privilege that is rich in history, art, and tradition. This city is a symbol of the greatness of Javanese civilization with a cultural heritage that is still alive in the daily lives of its people. Yogyakarta also offers the warmth of hospitality, natural beauty, and a wealth of culinary and handicrafts that attract tourists from all over the world.
EXHIBITION:
MUSEUM GUBUG WAYANG
The Gubug Wayang Museum was founded by Yensen Project Indonesia as a form of concern for the diverse arts and culture of Indonesia. Love for history, art and culture, provides the spirit to maintain and preserve. Inaugurated on August 15, 2015 by Mr. Drs Suyadi/Pak Raden. On August 15, 2017, the Museum was owned by Sendjojo Njoto Seni Budoyo and Yensen Project Indonesia. In the IVCA 2026 exhibition theme, the Gubug Wayang Museum will exhibit a replica of the Penny Farthing which we then call the "Big Wheel" bicycle from many types and models that have been produced throughout the world, this replica is handmade by Arianto Putra Purbalingga.
In 2017, Mr. Arianto, a young man from Purbalingga began making a big wheel bicycle after being inspired by a television show. He started with a small version, then later developed it into a large version thanks to the support of his friends. In 2019, he collaborated with the Gubug Wayang Museum to create a large wheel bicycle that initially only had one bicycle, and has now grown to approximately 30 units with various sizes and models. Large wheel bicycles are now increasingly in demand by the public, not only cyclists, but also art lovers because of their artistic shape. Its potential continues to grow, because each Big Wheel maker has their own unique style.
