Zip the Cow for Sue Ryder in summer 2024

Zip the Cow for Sue Ryder this summer

Zip the Cow 2024 is sponsored by Buntons Plant Hire and Crag and Co. Accountants, with Two Rocks Brewery as our event village sponsor. The event sees participants walk (or ride) to the top of the iconic ‘Cow’ at the Cow and Calf Rocks above Ilkley and then jump from it, sliding 270m at speeds of up to 35 miles per hour. Please note that our 1:30pm slot on Saturday where we give lifts to the top of the Cow for those unable to walk is now closed but please message us if you need that option and we will see what we can do. If you want to gift a place in Zip the Cow with no expectation to raise funds you can select the £75 option and let us know your preferred slot in the other info box. Participants will take in spectacular views of Wharfedale....if they dare open their eyes! This event will be held on the morning and afternoon of Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 July 2024. Places are booked on a first come, first served basis. NOTE: You must confirm you are between the weight limits of 5 stone and 17 stone to take part in this event.
