national bike challenge

The National Bike Challenge website has essentially vanished! The site is still there, but the data is gone. ☹ You can't ask people to log data for months, and then disappear without notice! They will not be seeing me next year - if they're back.
I was in 4th place for Arlington for November a couple of days ago. I can't even enter my data for the 30th. I guess we'll never know how things ended....

Either I meant to complain about a different site, or they had a total re-vamp for 2017 - I entered a lot of data (and some photos) last year, and everything's still there.
(I have to change the URL from https to http to get in though, so something's busted there.)

It's a completely different site with the same name. The URL has changed from nationalbikechallenge.org to www.lovetoride.net, and this site is hosted in the UK. It's hosting multiple unrelated challenges. (You can stumble into others by stepping past the first/last photo in a challenge gallery, or perhaps by guessing at URLs.) There's no 2016 data here.
