History
In 1995 Australian Bill Mitchell, a keen cyclist and professor of economics at the University of Newcastle, created the website titled "Bill’s Cycling Racing Results and News" after finding there was a need for fast-breaking news and race results in English-speaking countries.[3][4] In 1999 Sydney-based publishing company Knapp Communications purchased the website from Mitchell,[5] and in July 2007 they sold it to British publisher Future plc for £2.2m.[6][7][8]
In July 2014 it was bought by Immediate Media Company, with sister website BikeRadar and sister magazines Cycling Plus, Mountain Biking UK, and Procycling.[9] In February 2019, Immediate Media sold both Cyclingnews and Procycling back to Future.[10]
