What
Join us for the 3rd Annual Cranksgiving Event, a community gathering that combines the outdoors with giving back! Organized by the North Valley Mountain Biking Group in Phoenix, this special event collects food donations for the Foothills Food Bank to support our neighbors in need. Whether you’re an experienced rider, a casual hiker, or just want to support a great cause, there’s something for everyone. Enjoy guided mountain bike rides through Apache Wash, participate in group hikes, and enter our exciting raffle for a chance to win super rad prizes. Bring non-perishable food items and join us in making a difference this season while celebrating the spirit of gratitude and community!
Why
Mountain bikers are more than riders—we’re a community united by a spirit of generosity and a commitment to giving back. At the heart of our sport is a culture of helping one another on the trails and supporting those in need off them. Cranksgiving embodies this spirit, bringing together our passion for adventure with our desire to make a difference. By collecting food donations for the Foothills Food Bank, we’re not just riding—we’re building connections, fostering kindness, and ensuring our neighbors have the support they need. This event is a celebration of what makes our community special: the willingness to lift each other up, share what we have, and create positive change together. When mountain bikers come together, we don’t just conquer trails—we strengthen our community and show that the greatest climbs are the ones we make for others.
