Suki Sukosol Launches Motorcycle Story Photo Book
Thai music icon and Bakery Music founder Suki Kamol Sukosol Clapp has released a new photo book titled "Motorcycle Story" documenting over 35 years of motorcycle travel experiences and his 10 favorite touring routes across Thailand. The book covers everything from trip planning and essential gear to camping and off-road riding, aiming to inspire a new generation of riders to explore the world on two wheels.
Motorcycle Story Photo Book shares diverse experiences from motorcycle travel by Suki Kamol Sukosol Clapp, along with 10 favorite touring routes. For over 35 years, the name "Suki" Kamol Sukosol Clapp has appeared in many roles in Thailand's creative scene: musician, producer, alternative music pioneer, Bakery Music founder, and a creator who constantly experiments and innovates. Yet one thread connects every phase of Suki's life: the journey. From his musical journey to travels seeking new people, stories, and inspiration, motorcycle travel gradually became integral to his life and identity.
For Suki, a motorcycle is not merely a vehicle but a door to the world, a tool that leads him off familiar paths to encounter people, places, and stories he would never find traveling otherwise. One vivid memory is Dreamchaser (2006-2008), a series where Suki took Thais on motorcycles to meet individuals pursuing their dreams in locations across Thailand and abroad.
Since then, his passion for the two-wheeled world and love of motorcycles has grown, becoming part of creative projects like Gypsy Beach Camp (2018-2024), Thailand's first beach motorcycle race gathering enthusiasts to celebrate motorcycles, music, and art.
Today, Suki Kamol Sukosol presents another creative work — a second chronicle after Bakery & I nearly 20 years ago. This time he tells a new chapter through the photo book "Motorcycle Story," born from diverse experiences on two wheels. Countless stories from behind the handlebars — from the inspiration to ride out and see the world, to 10 favorite touring routes — are captured in hundreds of photographs and thousands of stories Suki has remembered and woven into a book to pass on knowledge, experience, and most importantly, "inspiration" to new generations of riders, giving them the push to start their engines and explore the world.
Motorcycle Story begins before dawn with questions from within and from those around us: "Why We Ride?" It covers how-to preparation, essential gear from high-tech to wet wipes, trip planning, calculations needed, and shares many favorite routes — the source of fun experiences and harsh obstacles that make road stories meaningful and unforgettable.
Through 8 chapters, Motorcycle Story lets you learn, enjoy, and find inspiration for motorcycle travel: 01 Why We Ride, 02 Pre-Ride Preparation/Essential Gear, 03 Trip Planning — Where and When, 04 The Gang, 05 Road Stories, 06 Camping, 07 Dirt and Off-Road Riding, 08 Touring with a Wife — Riding Two-Up. Plus 10 of Suki's favorite routes traveled across all four corners of Thailand.
