• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Yep, the hill was extreme, but was relatively smooth.
A good run up, lots of momentum and leaning up on the tank with the bars in your lap, got all riders up with 1 or 2 goes. The photo (as is usual) does not do it justice.
We all agreed it was the best hill climb that we have ever done.

I guess that Mercedes Benz is not for everyone ! :D

Every picture I ever see of ausies riding always is a huge group. Is it customary for you guys to ride in big groups or is it just a coincidence? When I go riding more than 3-4 riders and I think its getting crowded.

Our monthly rides are usually 2 or 3 day affairs and tend to have 15-25 riders, but day rides in between are much smaller groups of 4-5 riders.

Wow...that is a huge group! Good-looking group, though :)

The dirt looks almost as tasty as the BBQ :D
