About this Event
Welcome to Pedego Greenville Cranksgiving 2026! Join us at Pedego Electric Bikes Greenville for a fun-filled afternoon of biking and giving back to the community. Get ready to pedal your way through Greenville with a scavenger hunt list of items to collect for those in need. This in-person event is perfect for bike enthusiasts of all levels. Don't miss out on the chance to make a difference and enjoy a day of biking with fellow riders. Mark your calendars and get ready to crank up the excitement at Pedego Greenville Cranksgiving 2026!
The idea is simple: collect food and do it on a bike. The rules are minimal: be safe and have fun. The cause is to donate to those in need in our community. On Saturday, November 14, 2026 cyclists of all ages and abilities will gather to collect food for community collective, Upstate Food Not Bombs.
Cranksgiving is a combination food drive and scavenger hunt, ON BIKES, with participants pedaling throughout the city to visit area stores and collect holiday food items from a secret list. Cyclists can choose whatever route they want (streets, bike paths, alleys) to get to where they’re going. The list, or ‘Manifest’ is a collaboration between event organizers and a local charity, comprised of non-perishable food items and basic personal items.
Cyclists complete the ride by returning to the starting point within the time allotment. Bonuses may be given out for solving puzzles and collecting specific food items. No experience necessary, all ages and proficiencies on a bike are welcome.
Join this fun day of riding, scavenging, and gathering donations to benefit our Greenville community through the Upstate Food Not Bombs collective! We are looking forward to seeing everyone this year and having another great turnout!
