Cranksgiving was featured in ArlNow! https://www.arlnow.com/2019/11/07/15-mile-bike-ride-and-clothing-drive-coming-to-arlington

You don’t want to miss out on what one commenter described as “an unsanctioned race of sorts, without a formal course but through a relatively busy commercial corridor on a Saturday midday, where the riders also have to carry things. OK. Ride smart, folks.”

Thank you to Hops N Shine for being a sponsor and setting up a clothing drive for Cranksgiving. Drop off a donation next week for half off an appetizer and a great selection of brews to go along!

Team M-B is figuring out logistics for the day. Are teams meant to stay together for the biking part? If we have to jet at 1:30pm, will we miss all the fun?

We believe in participants exercising free will, but you’ll probably want to mostly stay together. A few of the stop sponsors are going to provide an item to every member of the team present. As a thank you to our sponsors we want to generate as many stops at their businesses as possible and show them that bikes mean business.

You may miss the award ceremony if you jet by 1:30. We are going to tabulate as quickly as possible. Since it’s our first time organizing there’s a lot of uncertainty as to how well our schedule will work.

Thank you for signing up and promoting with the Kidical community.

Those are some great photos. Bummed I couldn’t be there for the after-party.
