The most exciting thing I did this weekend was attend the book launch party for my friends Cicero deGuzman and his girlfriend Katie Maguire. The book is a project that Cicero has been working on for a long time, with Katie's assistance and support of course. Cicero works doing creative director work for others, so it's so exciting to see him have completed his own project. And what a project it is...the book is beautiful with page after page documenting motorcycle builders, their workshops, and their lifestyles. Cicero told me that he started this project after riding for a while and deciding he wanted to build a bike of his own. He took a year off, and went to mechanic school in Florida. While there, he realized there was quite a bit of style to go around, and since he enjoys recording and documenting, an idea was born. If you have never appreciated the beauty of a good bike, now is the time to start. Check out the book: Godspeed 45/06 Document No. 2 by Cicero DeGuzman Jr. You can buy it at godspeed4506.com .

Godspeed 45/06: Document No. 2
Bookcover for Godspeed 45/06 Document 2. Everyone, pick up this book! It's great.
Cool bike spotted outside the launch party. Hopefully the book will show more people the workmanship and design that go into these bikes.
Slideshow at party featuring pictures from inside book.
The author Cicero DeGuzman and his girlfriend Katie Maguire (who are quite possibly two of my favorite people!)
