Why not ask Brian – or at least check out his blog posts. We noticed a great deal of interest from our newsletter subscribers when we included his blog, Brian Commutes By Bike, in our Five Links section of our e-newsletter this past Friday, so we figured there may be several of you that may be interested as well.
The blog’s title says it all, or at least we hope it does. You may even get a chance to hear about some of the things we miss during our regular commutes…

I really can’t be sure if the guys on the trailer were up here working preparing to work on the restaurant (I actually think some patch work was being done to their truck). I can be sure of the fact that it was just ironic timing based on what ran in today’s Birmingham News about Bonedaddy’s – sorry, soon to be Sweet Bones Alabama.
That’s right – according to today’s News’ business section the restaurant located in the Village at Lee Branch will be changing it’s name, relocating to larger space at The Summit (the former On the Border location pictured above) and working on plans to open locations outside of Alabama.

Seems like the Tory MEPs and the City Council in Birmingham, England don’t talk to each other that often. The Birmingham Post’s Joanna Geary shared an abbreviated version of the council’s debacle on the newspaper’s news blog earlier today. An image of our skyline was included on a recycling brochure that went out to more than 360,000 households in the English metropolis. Yes, we’re expecting jokes to appear in the comments.
Back in January members of the conservative party in England’s Second City decided to include a photo of the Birmingham skyline on their website… if you don’t remember what happened, check out our post from back then (which includes a screen capture of the image in question). It remained up for several days, or at least a week, based on what we learned for our follow-up post. One of the results was an interesting comparison of the two cities by The Sun.

Dr. James Andrews is likely one Birmingham’s best known surgeons, especially to the professional athletes and wrestlers that visit the city seeking his opinion on their latest injury. The good doctor is the focus of an article in the upcoming September issue of the magazine Fast Company (#128 for those of you keeping track at home).
While they haven’t changed the website to reflect the issue that started arriving in mailboxes yesterday (it starts on page 104 if you’ve already received it), when they do, be prepared to check out the list of 78 of the athletes that have paid a visit to The Magic City for his services. Of course, you can always read the bio on his practice’s site too.
