A few things are for sure already: There will be good food, there will be a recap of the season's rides, discussion of next years club plans and for those in attendance there will be drawings for prizes, including discounts for massages with Licensed Massage Therapist Donna Cormier, a long time club member and cyclist., a full month membership to Cranmore Family Fitness Center ( our latest new sponsor of the MWVVELO Cycling Club!! ) , two punch cards for 6 spinning classes each and 5 individual passes to spinning classes at Cranmore Center. Spinning is a great way to stay "bike fit" during the "white out months"....

this is always a good chance to see all our valley cycling friends and exchange lies about our great feats this season!!
