List of cycling magazines

A cycling magazine or bicycle magazine is a magazine with news and reports on bicycles, cycling, and the bicycle industry.

Bicycle magazines may feature new bicycle tests and comparisons, which describe advantages and disadvantages of similar models; future models speculations; bicycle tour descriptions; bicycle safety issues, lists of new models and gear with prices, manufacturer advertisements, specifications and ratings; new and used bicycle advertisements; bicycle racing news and events; and other information.

Among the first publications for cyclists appears to be Cycling UK’s (then the "Bicycle Touring Club") club journal which was first published in October 1878.[1] Other early cycling-oriented magazines were Cyclist and Wheeling (1880 or earlier) and the London-based Bicycling News (1881 or earlier).[2] In the 1880s more than a dozen magazines already existed in the UK.[3] A particularly long-running publication is Cycling Weekly which was started in 1891 as Cycling.[3] Cycling was the largest cycling magazine in the 1890s.[4]
