This page links to all of the presentations given and notes recorded at the 2009 ECCC Fall Meeting. The original agenda and pre-meeting materials are available here:
- Mass start and gravity race registration fees will be increased to $15. Each promoter will pay a $1/unique rider/day surcharge to the conference at the conclusion of their event, including non-collegiate racers and categories. Note that this is slightly different than the proposed per-start surcharge, but as discussed and accepted at the meeting, works out to roughly equivalent numbers and is more similar in scheme to other surcharges. For the time being this will only be applied to Road and MTB seasons; Track and Cyclocross will be exempt until more collegiate-oriented events and/or seasons are developed.

- An "All Season Riders" award will be introduced to track and recognize the woman, man, and team that earn the most points through the academic year, encompassing Track, MTB, Cyclocross, and Road seasons (for 2009--2010 the Track season will not be included).

- Women's Intro will be expanded to include non-collegiate women racing on 1-days or first time Cat 4 licenses. This instantly creates 16 high quality, fun, educational racing opportunities throughout the region to attract and engage new women racers and help develop women's cycling outside the ECCC.

This instantly creates 16 high quality, fun, educational racing opportunities throughout the region to attract and engage new women racers and help develop women's cycling outside the ECCC. Such racers will be skipped over entirely in terms of Women's Intro points.
- Women's A racers with Cat 1 or 2 licenses may, with the conference director's permission, enter the Men's B or A races for additional training, as well as race the Women's A races for points. They will be skipped over entirely in terms of points in the Men's race results.
- A Women's C category will be created, and Women's B held combined with the Women's A race. This simultaneously addresses a number of issues, including upgrade bottlenecks for Women's B, too small Women's A fields, and a poor ability distribution across the women's fields. Extensive details and discussion are available in the slides and presentation notes above.

Extensive details and discussion are available in the slides and presentation notes above.
- Intro Clinics will be added to each event, to be held off-course during the races immediately preceding each Intro Race. Roughly half of each race will still be dedicated to a coached format. The additional clinic time will increase the value of each event for Intro racers, develop them faster, and help keep the Intro races within time bounds by alleviating pressure to lengthen the coached periods.

- Race promoters will place a deposit down toward the proper conduct of their weekend, most notably based around timely delivery of permits and flyers. This should push posting flyers back up toward the preferred timeline of 3--4 weeks before each event.
