Fix Your Bike - the site has crashed, hasn't it?

[ARudeTerriblePerson]

Not just me?

I can’t get on it either

Yeah, the media have been pushing it, so I reckon: too popular.

I was half heartedly staying up for it, but never really expected to get on.

I know, me too. Lottery.

No joy here either

Same here 😫

I did eventually get into a registration page but then it went again.

I think the govt'll tout it as a massive victory - "so much demand, site crashed, such a popular idea, hero PM"

Yep. Totally crashed

They needed a virtual queuing system, didn't they? 😬

grrrrr

Yep stayed up and can’t get on.

Still can't get on

No, I can't.

Me neither!

I've been trying since it opened...crashed before I even got on the page. It will be hailed as a massive success obviously

If you are trying to get on and live in wales or Scotland they've managed to exclude you, clearly nobody owns bikes outside England.

@mellowgreenspring it is a health strategy which is a devolved power so Westminster can only make such decisions for England.

It should be means tested on tubbiness. Tubbiest gets the bike.

I gave up at midnight and started again at 5 am. Two hours later have a code.

Crashed on us too. Stupid idea though which will be used by the middle class hobby riders who are fit and cycle anyway.

No vouchers left

Well done, SoloMummy! Thanks, everyone else, for sympathising! Yes to hobby riders probably getting the bulk of them.

I am a massive advocate of cycling but I think this idea was ridiculous. I know bike club members who queued up to get their £50 vouchers to spend on immaculate £3,000 bikes. Take the money that would have been spent on this scheme and give it to the charities that refurb old bikes and donate them to kids/keyworkers who can't afford one otherwise.

Site is back up working now.
