You could also celebrate on the 172nd day of each year (i.e. June 21 this year) or on (Saint) Vitus Day (i.e. June 15). Either way, you better hurry up in arranging the festivities.

When can I celebrate my Ishi 022?

Riding on the 22nd day of the year would be too cold; Euro day/mo/yr format only pushes it to Feb 2nd. HTFU for Ishiwata?

Didn't they also make those Signature models with Ishiwata 019 and 022 as well?


EDIT:

(just from a quick search- it looks like they used 024 and not 019 or 022.)

The Tom Kellogg built Signature models were either Columbus tubing (Criterium and Track) or Reynolds 531 (Touring).
The later production models were Ishiwata.

Sorry for the lousy quality of the attached photos, the first is a picture of a photocopy, the second is courtesy ebay.
