The Bashers, and more than 100 cars, stopped over in Dubbo last night on the seventh day of their 10 day convoy from Brisbane to Sydney.
There were Despicable Me minions, rock gods, crows and onesies galore as the Bashers took a break at the zoo for lunch.
The Bash raises money for children and children's charities across Queensland and has raised more than $17 million since it begun in 1990.
As part of the visit, last night (Thursday night) young brother and sister Nioka and Finley, who have cerebellum hypoplasia and cerebral palsy ataxia, were presented with therapeutic equipment to assist them with posture and walking.
The Bashers will be setting off today for their next stop in Bathurst, before 2000 participants and 700 cars from all six state Bashes accumulate in Sydney on Saturday.
