+The [New Relic Go Agent](https://github.com/newrelic/go-agent) provides a nice middleware for the stdlib handler signature. 
+The following is an adaptation of that middleware for Gin.
+
+```golang
+const (
+	// NewRelicTxnKey is the key used to retrieve the NewRelic Transaction from the context
+	NewRelicTxnKey = "NewRelicTxnKey"
+)
+
+// NewRelicMonitoring is a middleware that starts a newrelic transaction, stores it in the context, then calls the next handler
+func NewRelicMonitoring(app newrelic.Application) gin.HandlerFunc {
+	return func(ctx *gin.Context) {
+		txn := app.StartTransaction(ctx.Request.URL.Path, ctx.Writer, ctx.Request)
+		defer txn.End()
+		ctx.Set(NewRelicTxnKey, txn)
+		ctx.Next()
+	}
+}
+```
+and in `main.go` or equivalent...
+```golang
+router := gin.Default()
+cfg := newrelic.NewConfig(os.Getenv("APP_NAME"), os.Getenv("NEW_RELIC_API_KEY"))
+app, err := newrelic.NewApplication(cfg)
+if err != nil {
+		log.Printf("failed to make new_relic app: %v", err)
+} else {
+		router.Use(adapters.NewRelicMonitoring(app))
+}
+ ```
