Charge Bikes have announced details of their 2nd Annual Cobble Wobble on Sunday 19 September. A bicycle hillclimb sprint up Cathrine Hill in Frome.
There’s a group ride heading over from Bristol/Bath for all competitors and spectators which will more than likely take in a few pubs en route… More on that here.
The second best Hillycat in the south west! This one’s gonna hurt though, believe. Bring sick bags and spare lungs. All the deets over at Track Dropouts.

Registration for today’s race is now closed – if your name ain’t down, you ain’t getting in!!!
The weather is perfect, the roadworks on North Road are minimal (‘sup to you if wanna ignore the lights or not!!) and all the prizes are sorted… Good luck to all participants, and massive props to all our sponsors: 14 Bike Co, Freshtripe, COG Mag, Detour Skate Store, Hub Jub, Darkotics and White Duck… BigTheFuckUp!

Hillycat number plates are ready for printing and laminating! Still time for anyone to register for Saturdays race!!
So it would appear that a small mistake was made on the route maps for races 2 & 3! The good news is both route’s DO NOT take in North Lane! The bad news is the routes are both a little longer (and easier) going up to the top of Bathwick Hill and then down, yes down, North Road…
Apologies to all those that have been out training on the hills in recent weeks and suffered small seizures at North Lane…
The Google Maps have been amended to show the actual route and can be found on the same links HERE!
The weather is looking like it’s going to be dry, so roll on Saturday. See you all there!!
The first batch of caps have come out of the FixedGearBath sweat shop, and they are massively rad. Screenprinted by White Duck, cut’n’sewn by Shirley & Jane… If you needed an excuse to enter The Bath Hillycat, here it is! Prize winning riders will each get one of these caps along with a whole heap of goods from 14 Bike Co, Freshtripe, Detour Skate Store, Darkotics, Hub Jub, Cog Mag, plus screen-printed T-shirts and spoke cards from White Duck.
If you want in, you need to register!
So we’ve set up some Google maps of the Meeting Point and the four races as well as all the info over at Track Dropouts. What could possibly go wrong?

One thing we got enough of here in Bath is hills, if racing up ’em in one gear is your thing this is for you. All the info is over at Track Dropouts, or you can register to race at: bathhillycat@googlemail.com
There’s some fine booty up for grabs for the winner and maybe some stuff to buy or blag from Detour Skate Store, Freshtripe, 14 Bike Co, Hub Jub, COG Mag and some hella fine Ltd Ed T-Shirts, Caps and Spokecards…. KaBoom!
