  We report that it is possible to obtain a series of high-quality crystals of
La-doped Bi-2201, of which the transport properties have been believed to be
"dirtier" than those of other cuprates. In our crystals, the normal-state
transport properties display behaviors which are in good accord with other
cuprates; for example, in the underdoped region the in-plane resistivity
\rho_{ab} shows the pseudogap feature and in the overdoped region the T
dependence of \rho_{ab} changes to T^n with n > 1. The characteristic
temperatures of the pseudogap deduced from the resistivity and the Hall
coefficient data are presented.
