What started as a casual gathering of friends enjoying a Thanksgiving day bike ride is now a fundraiser entering its 30th year. A kind of off-beat holiday staple in Sacramento, the Appetite Enhancement Bike Ride draws about 3,000 riders on all kinds of bikes. It’s a free ride, but also a fundraiser for local nonprofits, so bring money to donate and give the organizations something to be thankful for. 2200 Front Street.
