The club's Annual Meeting took place on Sunday, September 14, 2025 at 4:00 PM on Google Meet. There were 13 CRW members present.

Randolph Williams presented information on the club that included Financial Information, Rides, Membership, Volunteering, etc. See the Slides from the presentation HERE.

Board members in attendance responded to the following comments/questions from members:

• Recurring Rides - how are they determined?

39 unique named rides have been done more than once this season. This includes rides with the same title in the past year, and this includes “tags” associated with rides. 

More clarification about recurring rides was requested by a member: ideally anything that happens weekly or monthly should be included as a recurring ride.

• Whatever happened to the weekly rides from Cutler Park?

The Needham, Dover and Beyond with 3 routes now goes once a year. It would be great to do again, but it needs someone to take the lead.

• Are there plans for a special edition jersey for the CRW 60th anniversary?  

Yes! That is in the plan!

• Regarding Board and Grants activity - in the past, standards were developed for grants to be made; is that information available to the current Board?

That information will be relayed to the current Grants Committee by the member.

• What general grants were distributed in FY 2024? 

- Mass Bike
- The Bike Connector
- Worcester Earn A Bike

• Century grants

Grants are provided to non-profit organizations who provide volunteers/support to the Century rides. In 2024 these included:

- National MS Society
- Bikes Not Bombs
- New England Classic Charity Bike Tour
- Friends of Mattapoisset Bikeway
- Eastover Reservation Trustees
- Our Lady of Lourdes Hospitality
- Stow Bike for the Woods

• Where can financial information be found for the club?

It is filed with the State. The Board will provide links and information.

• Members expressed appreciation for all the work that is done including newsletters, rides, etc.

• It has been nice to see that “no-drop” rides are increasing the number of participants.

• It would be helpful to expand locations where weekend rides are held.
