    The CGOAB site is unavailable at the moment....
    Occasionally, I can get on, but after a few page clicks, I get
    "Too many requests" error, and it's gone again for at least a few days....
    I miss my cycling stories!!!


    Anyone able to confirm??
    Cheers

    Working fine for me too (never been there before, looks interesting)

    Edit: maybe check your browser and delete the cookie(s) for the site? (Google how to do it on your browser if required, but don't delete all cookies or 'reset' your browser - you'll be logging back into websites for weeks!)

    Working for me here.

    For anyone who hasn't read it yet - Willie Bennet's round the world trip is a really good read. https://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/?o=1mr&doc_id=15431&v=TD

    It strikes me that all those who contribute to that website are used to the earthy, primitive way of life that comes with transporting yourself and everything you need with your own muscles, whilst living under canvas and cooking on a portable stove, etc, and that those on here complaining about the primitive/old-fashioned appearance of the website would not do well away from their warm houses with their fast broadband that can load complex, image-heavy web pages in milliseconds. ;)

    I wouldn't know, I was about to read one of the articles, but I had a photosensitive seizure before I could click on it :D

    When I read the title, I thought some well known cycling figure must have hit the deck this morning.
