Turkey Ride Benefits Human Needs Food Pantry

Join fellow cyclists to purchase and deliver frozen birds to local pantry.

Calling all cyclists! A first annual "Turkey Ride" is planned for Sunday, Nov. 24, to benefit the Human Needs Food Pantry.

The challenging 15-mile ride starts at the Montclair Bikery, 145 Valley Road, and travels to Brookdale ShopRite, 1409 N Broad St., in Bloomfield.

At the supermarket, cyclists will purchase a turkey and ride it over to the food pantry at 9 Label St. back in Montclair.

The ride is free, but bring $20 to buy the turkey.

Riders will gather at 9:30 a.m. for bagels and coffee and leave at 10 a.m. Sandwiches and hot cocoa from Egan's will be provided after the ride.
