Toy run to snake from Carnival City to Benoni

THOUSANDS of bikers will convene at Carnival City on November 27 for a mass ride to Benoni as part of the 34th annual Gauteng Motorcycle Toy Run.

Carrying gifts and toys for underprivileged children, they will snake their way to Benoni Northerns Athletics Club where the donations will be collected for distribution to children’s charities.

The mass ride from Carnival City will commence at 6am. People not participating in the mass ride are also encouraged to visit Benoni Northerns Athletics Club to watch the bikers arrive and join in the fun. There will be stalls selling food and crafts, as well as entertainment. The entrance fee is a toy.

Ideally, educational toys or toiletries should be donated. No toy guns or knives will be accepted. People are urged to bear in mind that battery operated toys are of little use once the batteries die.
