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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Or for anyone who can make it. Fun family ride weekend June 7-9 near Saguache, Colorado. The place is Old cow town. It's an old west style destination resort that is letting us host a dirt bike event. Should be lots of fun. Live bands, beer garden, bench racing, kids events plus tons of trails to ride. Event flyer is below. Hope you can make it!

Was a very fun weekend. I didn't ride much due to a recently repaired knee but there was tons of riding to be done by others. The owner of the property let us cut in a brand new single track loop. Recent rains made for a dark brown ribbon winding through the trees and rocks. insert homer drooling smiley here. Probably 100-200 miles of trails in the nearby area. Some single track, some 2 track, easy to hard and overall a good mix. At first I thought the old west themed town would be kinda dumb and gimmicky but it quickly grows on you. On site restaurant is excellent and camping facilities are pretty nice as well. They are definitely catering to the cowboy image but riders of all types are welcome there at any time. 2 stroke 4 stroke, 1 horse power, mules, llamas? Good people there running the place. Very friendly.

Sorry I didn't take any pics. I'm a horrible photographer and almost always forget my camera anyway. It turned out to be a euro fest. Several KTM's, 3-4 Gas gas's, 3-4 betas my Husky of course and a few Japanese brands. Probably around 20 bikes showed up. Not too bad for a first year event with short notice I guess. Probably the highlight of the weekend was when they opened up the rodeo arena and let us do some barrel racing with the dirtbikes! I'm getting excited for next year as I'm typing this.
 
Will this be an annual thing? The kid is only 5 months now, but in a few years we might be doing the family thing............

That's the hope. I guess we'll see in a couple of months. I saw you got your 610 back. That's good news. Hope it wasn't too trashed.
