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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Andrew DeLong makes it 4 in a row!!

Murrieta, CA - September 23, 2013 - Fred Andrews Racing Husqvarna's Andrew DeLong has officially started a new win streak in the GNCC series, having taken his second consecutive win in the XC2 Pro class! DeLong piloted his TXC250R to a dominant win in Foxburg, Pennsylvania at round 11 of the 2013 series.

A new stop on the tour, the "Gusher" GNCC lived up to his name having received a deluge of rain on Saturday afternoon - but the series crew was able to turn the track into one of the best of the season after having spent the morning making a new 10-mile course. DeLong got out to a mid-pack start and got to work pushing toward the front of the XC2 class. He quickly got into the lead only to give it up with a crash on lap 3. Fortunately DeLong regained the lead and put the hammer down to build a 47-second buffer over second place by the time the white flag came out. DeLong cruised to the win, and also managed to end his day in fifth place overall!

"I had trouble finding my flow at first," DeLong said. "I gapped second only to start making mistakes and then crash and lose the lead. But I rebounded and started to flow and wound up passing the XC1 guys to finish fifth overall."

Andrew now heads to Italy for the International Six Days Enduro where he will represent the U.S. on the Junior Trophy Team. Good luck, Andrew!

AMA Endurocross
Factory Husqvarna's Cory Graffunder was back in action in Ontario, California where round three of the AMA EnduroCross series was underway. Graffunder was looking to repeat his podium performance from round two, but had to settle for eighth in the main event.

"It wasn't really an ideal night," Graffunder lamented. "I never jumped the matrix - a lot of guys were jumping that and I probably should have."

Graffunder was still able to maintain his position in overall points, leaving Ontario still in a solid fifth overall. With only three of the seven rounds in the books, Cory has hopes of getting his TXC310R back up on the podium at an AMA EnduroCross this season.

..all the best to you ,Andrew and the whole group of F.A.R. support crew and associated other Husqvarna racers during the 6 Days!
 
I always make it a point to inform my Wife how well the FAR team is doing.

Dunno why she doesn't share my enthusiasm....
 
Ends out the series with 4 wins and a row! If he would not have had to sit out for 2 rounds he would have killed everyone.! Way to go! I wish others were sharing my enjoyment...

Wish he still had the 310 to dominate on next year. After riding the 2013 TXC310 this last weekend I see why he gets along with that bike so well. It is an amazing machine.
 
Yes we are****************************************! I was also looking forward to seeing the TXC310R in the XC1 class next year, bummer for sure. So now when will we hear about if & who will be riding FAR Huskys next year.......

''Andrew Delong bids farewell to the XC2 Pro Lites Class with the final win of 2013'' from report on GNCC site.
 
I believe the rule is if you are top ten for 2 yrs in a row, you get bumped up to XC1. Stew Baylor had to go XC1 this yr. JThomas will be going XC1 for 2014 also, will be a stacked class....
 
Top ten for 2 years, wow, thats not much time to get the hang of it. I could see if you were in the top 5 or something but I guess the reign at the top of the XC2 is short lived. I really hope AD is back on a Husky next year.
