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.
