• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

3rd Overall in ''C'' Race; Pennsylvania ECEA Hare Scramble

Husqvarna
Pro Class
My son's (Andy) first adult race and the first on the new WR125. Almost pulled the holeshot; got beat by a wheel. Ended up 2nd in the 200C class and 3rd overall out of 67 bikes. And out of the 67 he was the only Husky. The 200C class started on the fifth row with each row 1 minute apart, so there was some bikes to work through or at least sneak to within the time adjustment. First place in 200C class took the overall. Andy ended up 45 seconds out of 2nd OA. He actually pitted for gas; which went well until I (dad) could not get the gas cap back on square. I was not aware, as I am now, of the process of lining up the cap before screwing it on. Hopefully this will go away with the larger tanks rumored to be coming. I think the whole gas stop thing did cost him the 2nd OA.

The event, Hillside Hare Scramble, was held August the 8th in upstate Pa. by the ECEA/Valley Forge Trail Riders club and had about a 22 minute lap time through some great terrain. The club did a great job, as usual, putting on the event in a virgin location a long way from 'home'.

This was kind-of, sort-of supposed to be a testing race to evaluate the changes made…
Walt's springs, suspension work by KB5 out of Lebanon Pa., misc. jetting changes and some other minor stuff. Knew he was capable but was not expecting the end results.
Needless to say he kind-of, sort-of likes the setup.
Thanks to the guys at Toy Tech for all the help…


We did get some lookers and talkers in the pits…:thumbsup: ...before and after the race!
 
Wow awesome results, CONGRATS! He did this on a 125 and not with a 144 kit? If so just think what he could do with the 144 Husky kit and a larger gas tank. Very well done Andy.
 
Auuggh!! I shouldn't be reading this! La-la-la I'm not listening!!

I've got this yearning lately to line it up again and see what I can do with my WR144, and reading about all these great results from the little tiddler is only making it worse. Cut it out, you guys! :naughty:

Big congrats to Andy :applause: I'm looking forward to more good results from him :thumbsup:

Oh, you are bad, bad, bad! :devil: Our D36 enduro series starts back up in autumn, we'll see how it goes :D

Nice looking kids you've got there! Does the brother ride, too?

Andy's results are even more impressive now since it looks like he raced on the stock tires :eek:
