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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Did a little riding last Friday in the Sierra's of N.Cal with "cmonomo". Conditions were perfect after the rain we got last week. Nothing crazy just some good times!!

I was in the Southern Sierras (Mammoth Lakes) Friday and saw a couple of guys riding, one on a Husky. I was out at the local informal shooting range doing some blasting because I hadn't taken the bike with me.

Not as lush as the area in your pics.
 
I like your choice of back tire on the 510.:D

Must hook up really good in the forest and they leave such a soft foot print on the trail.

:cheers:
 
After my first ride on a trails tire a year or two ago I will never go back. I've got my son on one as well (KDX 220) and I told "cmonomo" I wouldn't let him buy anything else till he tries one on his 310. How can you argue with something that doesn't rip up the trails and at the same time allows you to climb just about anything!!
 
Looks wonderful.:thumbsup: We're still waiting for any real rain down here in the southern part of the state.:thumbsdown:
 
I'm trying to decide where to go this coming Friday. And I can't figure out where you guys went. I'm thinking about going to Georgetown or off of Hwy 20. It looks like you had some perfect conditions.
 
Wow...that dirt looks sweet!

I was at Stonyford for the weekend and conditions could not have been better :thumbsup:

Couple of days of rain here in the Sierras (Mammoth). Raining and snowing right now. Don't know how far south the wetness got.

Not far enough....:p
 
Was that GT, CKPC ? Looked like that or Foresthill... or Elkins or Goldnote...hell,
I don't know... it all looks the same. I was up in the El Dorado NF on Sunday up there
off Forbay. There is some of the most supreme single track up there that no one knows
about including me till I stumbled upon it. Even the two-track up there is frickin pristine
and it goes on forever. We got lost on Sunday and it took us a while to figure out how to get back to the truck. We made back thanks to a family of quadtards who steered us in
the right direction.

Nope not GT, it's off HWY 4. There is not a lot of single track up there mostly jeep trails, but knowing people up there I have been shown quite a bit more (and no I don't ride anywhere that is not legal or I don't have permission).

HWY 4 has much less then any of the other routes up the Sierras but having a place to stay and friends up there makes it perfect for me. I would like to hit some of the other areas more often though - GT, Elkins, Goldnote, Foresthill. I've only been to each a couple times because I really don't know the area. Plus I am no racer so finding people that ride at a more relaxed pace doesn't always work.
 
We got 10" of rain in Santa Cruz Mts. I rode at Hollister Hills SVRA then Sand Hill MX in Livermore.

Nice rain...

Mo and I decided to head back up to the same area before it dried out. Another day of fun! I love the Fall!!!
