BODKi is a book created for road cyclists who experience riding as both performance and emotion. Combining authentic stories by Juraj Porubský with immersive panoramic photography, it captures the atmosphere of Slovak and partly Czech roads that can only be discovered from the saddle.
The first edition, BODKi – Slovakia I., presents fifteen carefully selected routes across five regions, each prepared in collaboration with local riders. The Coffee Ride, Medio Fondo, and Gran Fondo routes offer verified, safe, and visually compelling circuits, all accompanied by QR codes for instant navigation.
The book is produced in a 20 × 25 cm format with approximately 300 pages, providing ample space for expansive photography and precise route descriptions. Its visual identity is further enhanced through the use of two Munken papers: Munken Print White for clarity and contrast, and Munken Print Cream for a soft, slightly yellowed documentary feel in the more atmospheric chapters. The book is also wrapped in a transparent paper cover.
BODKi is not just a cycling guide—it is a visual experience, a modern way of discovering the landscape through story, design, and the quiet moment of riding a new road for the very first time.
