You might think driving a truck in the Special Rigs for Special Kids event year after year would become a bit repetitive.
But after organising and driving in the event for 22 years, Greg Inch says there is still something new and fresh about it every year.
''It's always different - each time you get a different passenger, it gives you a different outlook on life.
''It's the most rewarding time of my year.
''Looking at the kids now, they're buzzing. It's a real feel-good day.''
Mark Duncan, the parent of a child with a disability, agreed.
He said the event also made a big difference to families like his own.
''The kids - it gives them something to look forward to.''
He said his son, 13-year-old Tyryn, had cerebral palsy and had been in and out of hospital for the past eight months.
Tyryn had been so excited about his ride in a rig that he had been counting down the days. In fact, he woke his mother at 4am on Saturday to tell her it was only one more sleep until the big day, Mr Duncan said.
Anna Hunt-Selwood said her daughter, Emily (3), also had a great day, despite not being particularly interested in trucks.
''She loved waving to the people down on the street. She loves being the centre of attention.''
Mr Inch said this year more than 200 families turned up with children who have special needs for rides in 187 trucks provided by drivers from across the southern region.
And the good news for children with disabilities is there are only another 363 more sleeps before the next Special Rigs for Special Kids, he said.
