Cranksgiving

The Bicycle Co-Op of Williamsburg is sponsoring Cranksgiving on Saturday, November 21.  Our beneficiary this year is FISH, in their new location, 7129 Pocahontas Trail (Rt. 60).

Here’s how Cranksgiving works:
1) Participants buy any food items on the list below to fill their panniers, baskets, and back packs.
2) We’ll gather with our full panniers, baskets, and back packs at the Co-Op at 3:00, Saturday, November 21, and ride as a group to deliver the food for FISH clients!

Last year, 27 riders participated.  Let’s show what the Williamsburg cycling community can do!  There is no need to register here, but if you do, it helps them plan and see who all is coming.
