Watch: Special Rigs for Special Kids highlights

More than 240 truckies took part in this year’s Special Rigs for Special Kids day, ferrying excited children from Dunedin’s Edgar Centre through to Mosgiel and back again in a large loop.

Event co-organiser and founder Greg Inch said the event, which has run since 1992, seemed to go from strength to strength every year.

"We had a couple of years off due to Covid-19, but every other year it’s been solid.

"We’ve backed up two and a-half streets with trucks — I’m really pleased."
