On Saturday November 8th ride your bicycle in our 17th annual scavenger hunt. Cranksgiving is a food drive on two wheels.
Bring a bike, a bag, a lock, and $20-$25 to buy food. Navigate city streets, urban trails and store aisles to find the specific ingredients for this year’s holiday meal. All food collected will benefit The Food Depot of Northern New Mexico. Last time riders gathered over 6.2 tons of food in our bid to help stamp out hunger during the holidays.
Win Prizes!
Categories: Fastest Rider, Fastest Small Team, Fastest Large Team, Most Food Collected and Best Dressed. Prizes provided by our sponsors!
What is Cranksgiving?
Cranksgiving is part bike ride, part food drive, and all about giving back. It began in New York City in 1999, and over the past 26 years it has grown into a movement embraced by cycling communities across North America and beyond. In 2025 alone, more than 120 cities in the U.S. and the U.K. hosted their own Cranksgiving rides, turning two wheels into a powerful way to fight hunger.
