from
Wikipedia
Shortly after the introduction of bicycles, competitions developed independently in many parts of the world.
Large races became popular during the 1890s " Golden Age of Cycling ", with events across Europe, and in the U. S. and Japan as well.
At one point, almost every major city in the US had a velodrome or two for track racing events, however since the middle of the 20th century cycling has become a minority sport in the US whilst in Continental Europe it continues to be a major sport, particularly in the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Italy and Spain.
