'Cranksgiving' in Temecula: Cyclists Deliver 200 Pounds of Food

The first-ever Temecula Cranksgiving Bicycle Ride benefited the Community Pantry.

The Temecula Community Pantry received more than 200 pounds of food Saturday when at least 40 cyclists participated in Temecula's first-ever Cranksgiving bicycle ride.

Sponsored by the Bike Shop and Temecula Bike Train, the event was described at part bike ride, part food drive and part social event, according to a news release. 

Cranksgiving riders started at the The Bike Shop and made stops at a half dozen markets, buying food to donate and deliver to the pantry.
