Ride the Kow in 2016!

This year’s poster has been designed by Leon Ryan – an amazing local illustrator who has cleverly captured our light hearted vision of a mythical trail building deity, the Sacred Kow. Outstanding work!

Race Update / New Trails

AND THE FORESTS WILL ECHO WITH LAUGHTER

Hello racers. We have a bunch of news for the end of July — brand new trails, event updates, a sneaky release of trail names, Kowalski’s Trail Fund and Trail Buddy App… hell, we’re even including a little road riding news. Wait, What? Read on and it will all make sense.

KOWALSKI’S STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN

Tomorrow, the Kowalski Brothers officially open their latest creation — Stairway to Heaven. Stairway is a challenging new climb located close to Kowalski’s Sideshow and is the result of many months of intensive trail craft. A 2.5km climb through quite challenging terrain, Stairway slithers about the hillside like a snake on acid. Loaded with twists, turns and technical treats that we call ‘stairs’ (some of which will require a ‘power move’ to clean), this trail will make you work, think and improve. Will you clean the 55 stairs in Stairway to Heaven? Find out this weekend.
(Stairway to Heaven features in the Full and Half Kowalski)

KOWALSKI CLASSIC – UPDATE

We are 50 days out from race day and our event preparations are bang on schedule. Entries will close in approximately one month, so now is the time to select your challenge.
Will you take on the FULL, the HALF or the QRTR?
