Cranksgiving is a national event that combines two things we love: riding bikes with friends and supporting our community!
Part scavenger hunt, part food drive, Cranksgiving is a team bike ride that sends folks around Knoxville to various grocery stores to collect food items, all to benefit our local food bank, Second Harvest Food Bank of East Tennessee.
Sunday, November 23rd, 2025 1pm-5pm @ Schulz Bräu (126 Bernard Avenue)
Each team will be given a list of grocery stores and food items to purchase, each worth a certain number of points. The team with the highest score and the quickest time wins!
Registration for Cranksgiving opens at 1PM and the ride begins at 2PM, so be sure to show up early to plan the best route!
Sort of…The beauty of Cranksgiving is that it can be whatever type of ride you want it to be. Hit as many grocery stores and get as much food as you want. Take your time and enjoy a casual ride, or crush it out and take home gold, it’s all up to you.
The important part is to have fun and to support our neighbors in need.
