Outing (sometimes titled The Outing Magazine) was a late 19th- and early 20th-century American magazine covering a variety of sporting activities. It began publication in 1882 as the Wheelman "an illustrated magazine of cycling literature and news" and had four title changes before ceasing publication in 1923. It was based in Boston. Samuel McClure edited the Wheelman for Colonel Albert Pope, Pope Manufacturing Company for bicycles for two years. Bicycling was the first outdoor sport to seize the Americans. Suddenly bicycling was all the rage.
