'''The Aurora Automatic Machine Company''' was started in Aurora, Illinois, in the 1880s and manufactured cast steel components for many purposes, including bicycle parts. Bicycling was very popular during that era (and beyond the turn of the century), and the company prospered from its precision castings used on numerous bicycle models. Some of these manufactured parts ended up on bikes created by Oscar Hedstrom, who was building his own gas-powered engines based on the French De Dion design, for motorized bikes. These were used as pacers or dernys for competitive bicycle racing. These motorized bikes circled the track at breakneck speeds and the pedal bikes rode in their aerodynamic slipstream until they crossed the starting line at speeds of up to 75 MPH. Hedstrom's engine design and the speeds it could achieve on the track got the attention of bicycle racer George Hendee. The two formed a business partnership that would become the Indian Motorcycle Company in 1901.
