Peter Hoffman sold the magazine to Leete Publications in August 1968 but stayed on as an editor until late 1969.

For three months following the name change, "American Cycling" was included on the cover in small print under the Bicycling!

Leete skipped the October issue and called it November both to make it more current, and because they were behind in production as they worked on the design change to Bicycling!.

In early December 1977, Rodale, Inc. in Emmaus, Pennsylvania sent a team to California to arrange to buy Bicycling!.

In 1980, Rodale purchased a smaller magazine, Bike World, and merged it into Bicycling!.

The project donates bicycles to healthcare workers in Africa, particularly those involved in HIV/AIDS related work.

[6] Bicycling then documents the impact these bicycles have on the personal and professional lives of the recipients, such as in the May 2010 issue, where Dr. Travis (of the daytime television talk show The Doctors) is interviewed about his involvement in BikeTown (among other things).

[7] In the same issue, Bicycling compiled a list of the 50 most bike-friendly cities in the United States, with Minneapolis, Minnesota as number one.
