Bikers dressed like Santa Claus helped Sofia get into the holiday spirit during the 6th consecutive Christmas Ride in the streets of Sofia.

The motorcycle motorcade by the members of the Sofia Riders started out from the National Museum of History in strict observance of the anti-epidemic restrictive measures and with the mandatory helmets. Besides the many Father Christmases, there were several Snow Whites and elves as well.

Due to the epidemic, this year the bikers were unable to visit homes for disadvantaged children where they usually go to hand out presents.
