Boreal Bike Club/Team NOVARA Membership Information

The Boreal Bike Club/Team NOVARA has lived in many different forms since the mid 1980's. The latest revival of the club was in 1998, but the club has roots back to the early days of Team NOVARA making waves on the local riding scene some 15+ years ago.
