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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey Husky brothers and Sisters.

AMA racer of the year awards time. Deadline 15 December. Must be AMA member to vote. lots of good riders but I call attention to category 8. It is "Senior Racer of the year" They have Fred Hoess at the ripe young age of 50. Please vote and if you are on the fence in category 8....vote for fred. well deserved and may just remind him he is 50 and slow him down too! (for those that have to race against him..LOL) more golds than anyone and won the vintage ISDE overall this year.. Takes top of a couple minutes. Thanks. Many categories and many riders and disciplines too.

Joe

Joe Thanks for the reminder (Erek sent one out to me and I forgot about it)
If anyone cares
I tossed between Brabec, Haaker and Robert
went with Taylor (ISDE/enduro/xc fan big part of my world as moto offroad fan)
Ben Kelly for coming out of the woodwork with a super performance at the TKO extreme event
Fowler for ATV (I don't follow or know Fowler) I figured anyone who blasts GNCC courses on ATV is the one.
Bradford for women mostly because of her ISDE participation and seeing her at the Nat H&H and accepting her championship with poise immediately after returning from Spain
No other choice but Fred Hoess for the Vet (Super Sen!!) for his top of this list ISDE record, US enduro participation, ISDE Trophy and Club team commitment. And for his beautiful ISDE 2016 killed 'em all win OA in the new vet/vintage class**************************************** Plus Joe would hunt me down if I didn't vote for Fred.
For the Kids a toss up between Jett and Mason ( I've seen Jett race and have seen his bikes at the dyno shop, we will be seeing a lot of this guy in MX for sure) But I picked Mason Matthies because the kid just finished the Tecate enduro on his 80 (I think it was a big wheel , but still a mini) and I am an offroad/XC/enduro fan. ( I posted the kids H cam viddy from Tecate in the Tecate Enduro thread)
PS I wish Fred could have joined the Tecate Enduro parade, even AA Sen. Steve Leivan said it one for the record in fun smiles per mile. Plus Fred would have killed the 50 SSen class and
