The following [[Outline (list)|outline]] is provided as an overview of and topical guide to cycling:

'''[[Cycling]]''', also called '''bicycling''' or '''biking''', is the activity of using / riding [[bicycle]]s, (at least partially) [[Human-powered transport|human-powered]], [[wheel]]ed [[vehicle]]s (typically by [[Bicycle pedal|foot pedalling]]),<ref>but occasionally powered [[Handcycle|by the arms]],</ref> for purposes including [[transport]], [[recreation]], [[Social relation|social interaction]], [[exercise]], [[sport]], [[therapy]], other purposes,<ref>like walking your dog while riding,</ref> or any combination thereof.<ref>{{cite book

They typically either dress for where they are going, or for the cycling, sometimes having another set of clothing with them, or arranged.

Apart from regular two-wheeled bicycles, cycling also includes riding [[unicycles]], [[tricycles]], [[quadricycles]], [[balance bikes]], and other similar [[human-powered transport|human-powered]] [[wheel]]ed [[vehicle]]s (HPVs).

Some bicycles are sold with [[Electric bicycle|(electric) motors]] (e-bikes), or other [[Motorized bicycle|motor assistance]].

Cycling is practiced either solo on the vehicle, or with company, including passengers, riding in front,<ref>for instance in the box of a [[cargo bike]],</ref> or sitting on the cycle's [[luggage carrier]], or little children and/or pet animals in appropriate seats or such fixed to the bike, or occasionally actually riding with more than one person, cooperatively, on anything from a simple ''twin'' / [[tandem bicycle]], to a multi-person [[party bike]].

Cycling is most frequently practiced on-road, but also [[Mountain biking|off-road]], either mixed with other traffic, on distinct [[cycle lane]]s, separate, segregated, [[cycle track]]s, or the [[sidewalk]].
