made for the poster, i think (someone else made the poster)

20 ppl, btw, and i've got a car full of food.

one dude bought nearly $100 of groceries, and someone else dropped off (by car) a frozen turkey and two sacks of potatoes w/my friend who then had to ride it all over to the finish line. must've been close forty pounds (w/cans and the weight of a messenger bag)

*not the right thread, I guess. I'd mistakenly assumed that this was a general forum for cycling enthusiasm in and around the Thanksgiving holiday, but Cranksgiving sounds awesome!
