Outing and The Wheelman was an American sporting monthly centered on bicycling and outdoor pastimes for Northeastern U.S. readers — especially New York and Boston-area wheelmen — while reporting international developments from England and France. Regular features include race reports and touring narratives, club news and meeting notes for Boston- and New York-area cycling clubs, technical discussions of bicycle designs, patents and maker profiles (e.g., Pierre Lallement), equipment reviews, etiquette and instruction, illustrated historical essays, and society pieces linking tennis, hunting and travel. Distinctive for literary content—poems, serialized biographies—and advocacy of cycling as practical recreation and transport, often with illustrated engravings.
