Frome Cobble Wobble

Frome Cobble Wobble 2010 – Aspiring Photographer Wanted for 17.09.2010, Frome

This September, Red Bull is supporting what can arguably be described as the UK’s take on the Tour de France – Frome’s Cobble Wobble. Picture this – hundreds of crazy cyclists time trialling up 179 yards of steep cobbles in the sleepy town of Archangel, each aiming to make the best time. Obviously, Red Bull takes this sport very seriously and are therefore on the hunt for the King of the Cobbles 2010.

The fastest 20 riders from the whole Cobble Wobble will be timed to establish the Charge Bikes King of the Cobbles 2010. Once the cobbled chaos has calmed down, the winner will be crowned at the exciting awards ceremony taking place after the event.

If you think that this all sounds too bizarre to be true, and feel like you’ve got to see it for yourself then hesitate no longer. Red Bull is looking for an aspiring photographer to come along and capture all of the mayhem, as and when it happens. Up for the challenge? Simply submit your best piece of work and tag it with ‘Frome Cobble Wobble 2010’.

Red Bull Catch 2:2 Final – Aspiring Writer Wanted for 17.09.2010 at The Oval, London

You’d probably think that I’d be lying if I said that Red Bull has invented a game of cricket that takes only 15 minutes and four people to play… and you’d probably laugh out loud if I told you that the Oval is going to host it. Still not convinced? Well read on…

Red Bull Catch 2:2 has taken cricket fans up and down the country by storm this summer. The traditional rules of cricket have been defied to create an accelerated new format of the game that can be played by four people, in 15 minutes. The rules are simple: two teams, two players, and two overs. Rapid, rule-breaking, and really good fun.

Red Bull is extremely excited to announce that the final of the quintessentially English sport with a twist is fast approaching. Excited? Of course you are. But there’s more! The final is taking place at the England v. Pakistan One Day International at the one and only Oval on 17 September. And Red Bull is looking for a writer who’s got the skills to bowl them over with an action-packed report from the event. If you fit the bill, then what are you waiting for? Make sure you don’t let this fantastic opportunity slip through your fingers by submitting your best piece of work and tagging it with ‘Red Bull Catch 2:2 Final’.
