The annual Gauteng Motorcycle Toy Run saw hundreds of bikers gather at Carnival City on Sunday for a mass ride to Benoni.

Watch:

The Toy Run is a charitable event where the biking community gets to donate toys and stationery to less fortunate children.

Each motorbike was customised with plush teddy bears and unique toys, with the colourful and enthusiastic array of riders keen to make their donations.

Even the dogs got in on the action, riding shotgun in a customised sidecar.

The Tribal Warriors, made up of close friends and family, have participated in the Toy Run for many years and came to the 2019 event in full force.
