The Wheelmen's Gazette was a monthly cycling trade and enthusiast journal centered in Indianapolis, Indiana, with advertising reach extending to Springfield, Massachusetts; New York City; Baltimore, Maryland; Boston, Massachusetts; and Chicago, Illinois. Its pages combined extensive manufacturer advertising for bicycles, tricycles, tires, lubricants, club gear, and sporting goods with race results, club news, songs, illustrations, and product testimonials. It served bicycle dealers, cycling clubs, and riders across the United States, especially in the Northeast and Midwest, and promoted mail-order subscriptions, club circulation, and competitive cycling culture during the late 1880s.
