We will dedicate a bench for Eli along the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail in Chelmsford MA near Heart Pond, and reflect on his contributions to Charles River Wheelers.

Eli was the living embodiment of CRW. He was a core member of the club, serving as president, VP of Rides, editor of Wheel People, and of course ride leader.

He was a great motivator and encouraged others to give back to the club. He dedicated many hours improving how the club ran, organizing newcomer rides, making sure Wheel People had quality content, and even manning the hot dog grill after century rides. His contributions are too numerous to list here.

Participants will ride a short distance from the start location to the bench at Heart Pond. Riders may share their memories and stories of Eli, and the bench dedication will take place at 10 AM.

After the dedication ceremony, we will continue our ride (24 or 44 mi) on the back roads of Chelmsford and Westford together, as engaging in a club ride is the best way to commemorate his service to the club.
