La Popolare Ciclistica is an unsponsored cycling team based in Bergamo, right at the bottom of the Italian Alps. By the way being a "POP" gets over any national or natural boundary.

La Popolare is any kind of bike, for everyone, to everywhere. La Popolare is putting your foot on that damn Koppenberg cobblestones, la Popolare is moshing listening to Sheeina is Punkrocker in a creepy pub in Bruges. La Popolare is the mud in your face, the valley breeze that cools you down, the falling leaves rustle and all these little things that you can’t enjoy behind the window of your car.

La Popolare Ciclistica is the 53x13, the 34×29 and everything in between. La Popolare is "the best you can is good enough"...

La Popolare is a dream of revolution.
