In an adaptation of the ever popular Cranksgiving races across the USA we are bringing to Melbourne a race not just for you, but for others.
There’s no registration fee, but you’re going to need to bring cash with you, because the checkpoints are all grocery stores. At these grocery stores, you’re going to have to leave your bike outside, run in, and purchase** a specified food item. A bag & a lock is absolutely essential! Once you’ve collected all of the food items and have finished the race, we do a group ride to a soup kitchen & drop off all of our donations. Keep all of your receipts, because I’m going to check them to make sure you made it to each of the checkpoints.
Registration will be at 10:30 at the fountain south of the Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton Gardens (Between Rathdown and Nicholson) Don’t go Jeff’s Shed - we won’t be there.
The race will start at 11:00. NOTE TIME CHANGE!!!
**Receipts will be used to make sure you’ve been to the right checkpoints and have actually purchased the items. NO STEALING.
