Bicycle Nova Scotia(BNS) is the coordinating body for cycling in Nova Scotia. It is a volunteer-run not-for-profit organization. BNS seeks to promote cycling in all its forms including recreational, utilitarian and competitive. We offer a variety of services and programs to our members, many of which are extended to the general public such as courses on safe cycling in traffic and the guide book for bicycle touring called, "Nova Scotia by Bicycle". We are also involved in bicycle advocacy projects and cycling for persons with special needs. 1, record 1, English, - Bicycle%20Nova%20Scotia
