I'm not sure about the connection between drinking wine and bicycling, but some marketers of vino apparently want to create one.
Cycles Gladiator from Hahn Estates in California is the newest label sporting a bicycle — and a red-haired nymph. Oh la la!
It joins Red Bicyclette, a French wine that I was surprised to learn comes from none other than mass wine producer E & J Gallo in Modesto, California. …

Remember earlier this month when Ohio University campus police went all “homeland security” on a bicycle that displayed the sticker “This Bike is a Pipe Bomb”?
College officials in Athens say they'll reimburse the owner for the bike that was first sprayed with high pressure hoses then ripped apart by hydraulic cutters known as the jaws of life. The owner, grad student Patrick Hanlin, could get between $800 and $1,000 to replace the Cannondale T700, a touring bicycle. …

I'm trying to hammer through our 2005 federal tax return before the mid-April deadline, and I come across a tax break reminder for hybrid car owners. I started thinking, “Why not bike commuters?”
The owners of fuel-efficient hybrids are being reminded to report their $2,000 tax deduction if they bought their hybrid before the end of 2005. Anyone who buys one this year might be eligible for up to a $3,400 tax credit, depending on the make and model, when they file in 2007.
But how about bicyclists? Don't they reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels to a big fat ZERO? …

The stories this bicycle could tell.
Some 30 years after the Schwinn delivery bicycle was stolen from its rightful owner in Portland, Kentucky, it's back in the family home again. The bike belonged to John Eaton, known locally as “The Bicycle Man,” and was as well-known around town as Eaton. …

I thought fans of multi-day group bicycle tours in Maine might be out of luck this year after the Maine Wheels Bicycle Club announced it was taking a year off from both its Moose Tour and Coastal Tour in 2006.
But there's still the Trek Across Maine, a three-day supported bike tour across 180 miles of blue highways. It's a fund-raiser for the Maine Lung Association and 1,400 cyclists already have signed up, representing more than a quarter million dollars in pledges. It's just one of more than 70 multi-day bike tours this year …

Floyd Landis, the 30-year-old American bicyclist, already has two big victories under his belt in 2006: the inaugural Tour of California in February and this month's Paris-Nice.
So, instead of jumping into the Giro d'Italia in May, the team leader of the Swiss Phonak team is going to skip that three-week race to concentrate on the Tour de France in July. …
