I've seen some strange postings (spam and foreign text characters) early in the am and my guess is their doing some maintenance.

Here, do this
Down For Everyone Or Just Me -> Check if your website is down or up?
This site tries to connect from several places around the world, to verify if a site is totally down or not.

I think we knew it was down. Starting the thread was like a test of the emergency BROL backup network. They must have hit him pretty hard because it's still down this morning.

Possibly a DDoS attack like previous outages. Several times last year and one already this year. We can't possibly be important enough to warrant all the attention, so I wonder why BROL is a target so often?

On the BROL Facebook site Bryan said the hard drive had a hiccup which caused the server to go into rescue mode. Whatever that means. New server installed and now data being transferred to it.

Still down as of 9:30PM PST. According to a post on Facebook, Bryan is getting the last bits fiddled.

I don't know if it represents progress, but now when I try to browse to bentrideronline.com or bentrider.bike, I get an Apache 2 Test Page. So the DNS is pulling something up, just not what I expected.

Just now checked. Worked for me. No very recent posts, though.
