The statistic in the last sentence helps develop the idea that bicycle racing was a popular sport in the 1880s and 1890s by showing that: A - the success of the first cycling periodical in 1877 quickly led to the publication of many more cycling magazines. B - the rapid increase in publications about cycling was directly responsible for Americans’ growing interest in bicycles. C - Americans became interested in cycling around the same time that the publication industry began to flourish. D - Americans’ fascination with the bicycle influenced the rapid growth that occurred in the publication industry. (If you don't intend to actually answer, please just keep scrolling. go troll elsewhere.)

The statistic that in 1894, there were now over 50 cycling publications in the US whereas just 18 years earlier there had been none, was proof that Americans had taken a keen interest in the cycling industry.

Supply is an indication of demand and with that many Cycling publications in circulation, they could only be surviving if they had the readers to back them up. American fascination with the bicycle had therefore led them to demand more publications which led to the rapid growth that occurred in the publication industry.
