(Image from Moosterbroek on Flickr) (As usual, I may have missed some points. Feel free to add them in comments....Ed) More people are turning to bicycles for basic transportation every day. New machines aren't necessary for commuting or utility transportation. A serviceable used bike will do nicely. Today, I want to talk about buying a used bike.

The Red Sox have had it with Manny Ramirez, Dan Shaughnessy writes in the pages of today's Boston Globe. Ramirez sat out last night's game against the Yankees after telling Sox management he had a sore knee. The admission by Ramirez came after manager Terry Francona had already penciled the slugger's name into the lineup. The Sox were forced to juggle the lineup, and despite the return of David Ortiz,...

Conventional wisdom had it that Cadel Evans would win this Tour. He'd finished a close second last year behind Alberto Contador.

Manny being Manny is cute until it's not. It's charming and refreshing when Boston's future Hall of Fame left fielder is putting up Hall of Fame number. Doesn't matter that he's a pain in the ass for the Red Sox to deal with. When he's hitting, high-fiving a fan, taking a leak inside the Green Monster, Manny is being colorful, fun. Ramirez has angered management, his teammates and even the fans at...
