Bicycle Quarterly is a journal that examines the history, design, and development of bicycles, with a focus on Randonneuring bicycles. Footnotes are included in articles that assess equipment and bicycles for performance and function. Vintage Bicycle Quarterly was the magazine's previous name.
According to the group, "Randonneurs USA," Bicycle Quarterly is "a publication dedicated to classic lightweight bikes, particularly French ones such as Alex Singer and Rene Herse." In a 2009 article in Bicycle Times, Marie Autrey described Bicycle Quarterly as "Part anthropology journal, part engineering text."
