Subject: [CR]Entries in Used Bike Buyers Guide

One of the more screwed up entries in the Used Bike Buyers Guide was perpetrated by Richie Sachs. From about 1988-91, when Bicycling Magazine, Bicycle Guide and others would send out the form letter to framebuilders asking them to tell what the specs would be for the upcoming year's models, Richie sent back info on the:Signature Storino, Signature Menachem, Strada Immaculata, Signature Russell, Signature Yitzhak, Bici Ricci, and Piccolo Ricardo. Since I was dutifully copying the year & model from the annual buyers guide into the Used Bike Buyers Guide, they ended up in there. Richie told me about this at Cirque a couple of years ago, but for fun, I've left the entries in the guide. I can imagine the discussion on this list in fifty years when people are searching for the rarest of rare from this list of bs models. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
