This was one of the best events I participated in in 2006! Just when can you recall sprinting down a food aisle in Dahl's in full bike garb searching for Hamburger Helper?? A "Must-Do" in 2007!

The 2007 edition of the Des Moines Cranksgiving Alleycat will be held Saturday, November 17th at high noon. For this event riders will be given a list of 10 grocery items which must be purchased in 10 different stores. All of the food collected will be donated to the Food Bank of Iowa! Thanks to the sponsorship from Mars Cafe and Rasmussen Bike Shop we will be giving t-shirts to the first 100 people to register! At the 2006 event Cranksgiving 61 riders brought together just under 600 pounds of food! Nearly doubling our goal. For 2007 we've set a goal of 1000 pounds of food!!! So bring a friend, it will be a blast! All Ages, types of bicycle and cyclists welcome! 2006 BIKEIOWA photos | 2006 Event Site Photos
