The Bicycling World was one of the earliest dedicated cycling periodicals in North America, published weekly in Boston from 1879 to 1883. It documented the emergence of organised cycling culture in the United States, covering the formation and activities of bicycle clubs, amateur and professional racing, touring routes, and the growing American cycle trade. The publication profiled manufacturers on both sides of the Atlantic and served as a forum for debates on cycling governance and the nascent League of American Wheelmen.
