Las Cruces, NM

Cranksgiving is a food drive on two wheels: part bike ride, part food drive, and part scavenger hunt. Cyclists navigate through the city to designated grocery stores, purchasing specific food items to stock local pantries for the holidays.

This event is FREE, but you'll need a little money to purchase food. Donations will support Casa de Peregrinos Food Bank.

Pedal the streets and trails of your town as you search for specific ingredients that make up a Thanksgiving dinner. Once you've collected all items and arrived at the finish, this feast will be donated to our town's most needy.
