Abstract

The study of Rioja bicycling continues to be a ground of pioneers. In fact, there is a notable bibliographic absence, evidenced not only by the lack of studies on the history of bicycling, but by the low interest that researchers have given to the history of sport in La Rioja. This article aims to shed some light on this. Therefore, the evolution of bicycling in Rioja in the twentieth century is analyzed, taking into account the main factors and elements that made possible the progressive strengthening of this sport in Logrono; and the role played by mesocratic sports societies, the institutional support received and the support or rejection of specialized media towards this sports practice, through organizations such as Union Velocipedica Riojana, Deportiva de Logrono or Logrono Recreation Club are studied.
