On Saturday, the annual Warrnambool Motorcycle Toy Run took place.
Riders hit the road and motored on to Koroit and Port Fairy before returning to Warrnambool and lining up at Lake Pertobe.
Riders presented members of the Salvation Army with toys, which will be distributed throughout the district to families struggling to afford Christmas presents.
The day also included a free barbecue for community members.
Even organiser Trevor Warnecke said the day was a huge success.
“It was really good, we had more bikes than last year and heaps of people came down for a look,” he said.
“The support we had was amazing, businesses donated all the food and drinks for the barbecue which was a great effort.
“We got a lot of toys donated so the guys from the Salvation Army are very happy.
“Hopefully this will help make a lot of families happy this Christmas.”
