George Mallory Hendee (October 2, 1866 – June 13, 1943) was an American bicycle racer[1] and the co-founder of the Indian Motocycle Manufacturing Company.

Once he retired from racing and the manufacturing company, Hendee bred cattle and chickens on his farm.

He won the United States National Amateur High Wheel Championship in 1886, setting a new world record over a dirt half-mile track of 2 minutes 27.4 seconds, which he held until 1892.

The first Indian prototype was built by Hedström at the old Worcester Cycle Manufacturing Company in Middletown, Connecticut, and the first public demonstration was held on Cross Street in Springfield, Massachusetts at 12:00 noon on Saturday June 1, 1901.

In his retirement, he bred Guernsey cattle and White leghorn chickens on his 500-acre (200 ha) Hilltop Farm in Suffield, Connecticut.
