Possibly the worst website experience I…

Possibly the worst website experience I have ever had. From login issues, where they sent me a new password that still didnt work, to then taking over 2 weeks to reply confirming that it stil didnt work. To trying to renew and it failing, to now renewing and it not giving me a licence. Thats if it allows me to login once ive deleted all caches and cookies.
Never have I ever had such a problem with a website. Everyone I know who uses it agrees. I havent met one person who has had a seemless experience. Not fit for 2006 let alone 2026!

Worst website experience ever

I've tried about 15 times to renew. It's impossible. Their website simply does not work.

Even trying again is very time consuming, the option to start the renewal is only visible sometimes.

Hit and run not covered!

Had RTA with another cyclist who pulled out on me from a junction resulting in significant damage to my bike and me requiring hospitalisation. They fled the scene and despite filing a report to police, British Cycling refused to support with damages caused to my bike because I don’t have details of the 3rd party. I appreciate personal injury and wearable gear (GPS etc) is only covered at the highest premium tier, but I would have thought at least my bike would be covered but apparently not. Makes me question whether the £54 annual premium represents value for money as I’d be better off bolting extra cover to my home insurance? Food for thought people. Ride safe.

Double processing fee and appalling treatment…

Paid £35 to enter a race for my son. They also wanted £1 processing fee. The race was cancelled. The organisers paid back the money to British Cycling and they charged me another £1 processing fee. I just phoned them up to query this and was told ‘that’s just the way it is’ and had the phone put down on me when I paused to answer. Unbelievable and appalling - both the double fee and the way I was treated.

Were you really going to allow Emily Bridges to compete as a woman?

If so, then you are quite unfit for purpose. Feeble, indecisive, virtue-signalling half-wits.

The same Emily Bridges BORN a man, and who won last month’s British Universities Championships M-E-N-S points race?

Damn you for your craven cowardice.

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

I suggest a few sackings might be in order, and the sooner the better.
