2010-09-19 - Frome - Charge Bikes King of the Cobbles

I don't normally post up events that I get emailed unless I'm attending, but the flyers for this are freaking awesome and so it deserves to get promoted...

Charge Bikes are proud to bring you the "Charge Bikes King of the Cobbles" in association with the Frome Cobble Wobble.

Ride the Cobble Wobble for your chance to qualify and race against some top athletes and win the coveted King of the Cobbles title as well as winning some top prizes! There are categories for all ages and abilities so get yourself to Frome on the 19th of September and get involved in a celebration of cycling, cobbles and tomfoolery.

Nah, Frome is famous now what with Jenson Button and all.

Although you must check people for extra fingers and toes before allowing any bodily contact.

Pee Wee Ellis lives in Frome.

Beat that.

fancy dress mandatory for this,

I'm going to this, not sure about taking part though. Don't think my Fuji would get very far!

dosenthave to get very far,
the winner last year did it in 25 secs,.
straight out hill sprint, most will do about a minute.

there will be loads of other stuff there to do,
going with the B.C coach so be around the watt bikes, come and say hello, will be wearing blonde wig, stilettos and full make up, maybe

all good, I particularly like the pink flyer.

The artwork is really good, would make good wall hangings (2009 event also)

Just looked at trains from Basingstoke & they're shite. Need to figure out a better route. Bath then Frome?

Basingstoke > Reading > Bath > bike to Frome? It's not too far away From Bath.

anyone got any suggestions re gears for fixed?

Don't know how steep this one is but somewhere around 60" should be low enough unless it's a real wall!

i guess i'm going to be the only one from Brighton going then?

yay, be good to see ya Harvey

I want to do this but don't want to bugger my knee any more. Suppose I should do the sensible thing and keep resting it. I might roll along to watch though.

Anyone going from Dorset?
