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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Another great ride, and saw other Husky's!!!

We headed out to Mattawa for another ride before our trip to Moab! It was great due to the fact that the desert 100 race was happening, so EVERYONE was there, and not riding here!

It was 60 degrees, and no one in sight, until later in the day. A good day for sure! However, there were many cows, hence, lots of poop!! Lots . . . of . . . poop!!

Getting the rest of my gear on. Not one other truck in the parking area!

I wanted to stay off of the roads, and stick to the trails more this time. We went up a canyon where I tipped over. No pictures for that

The BF messing around while we ate lunch. I had a "lesson" in this area. Trying to teach me how to turn around in a tighter circle. Not a wheelie, but to lean into the tight turn, and gas it out of the final 1/3 of my turn. Im kinda getting it?

We made it to the truck when up the road comes a group of "Dual Sport" riders. There were three Husky's in the group!!! I was excited and wanted to meet/talk with them so we took off again up the road behind them. They spread out into the hills and we lost them. So we rode up to one of the look outs and stopped. Here the came. We met up with them at the look out and my BF tried to say hi, but they ignored him? So I waved at the last rider coming up (blue and yellow bike) and he did not wave back? It was kind of windy, and they looked like they had been riding a long while. Still, I was bummed out, so we left

Next stop, Moab Utah vacation!!
 
Nice stuff, yeah, old two stroke trick, lean, turn the front wheel, foot down and gas it to spin the back wheel, works best to the left
as your back brack control is right under your right foot.

that is a nice pix, of you and your bike.

Nice area U are in ... Trails look good and you can never be sure what those other riders are doing or up to at the point you saw them ...

I know Ray Ray. I rode ALL last summer and only saw 2 Husky's!? So, seeing 3 at one time, well, I was excited!! I wanted to chase after them!!! My BF, reluctantly agreed!

Im thinking you are right though, they looked as though they had been riding all day, very tired.

Yep, the last riding I was doing n the states, only a few Huskies to be seen .... Even at the Desert 100 a couple yrs back, not too many Huskies ...
 
Looks like another great area, but if you are cow trailing, you gotta take the fertilizer all in stride.

Shame on those other Husky riders for not having proper social etiquette out in the dirt!
