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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Alex Bottu!! Didn't know he was in the mix- Italian Panzer
Happy to see Toby on the top, I'm a fan of that guy.
Of course I'm a fan of Brabec (and all that race this event) but never of Honda Hype. They have been doing their usual advert campaign of the mighty Honda juggernaut.
As for the bLU cRU I don't mind them winning, I like the tuning fork brand best among the big 4 from Japan.
 
I see that Hero Speedbrain is still campaigning their versions of the TE449 series (BMW GS450) Machines. As Speedbrain 450s

Coverge this year via SBS has been very poor. It has been dummed down with non action footage of locals and party scenes. Being a take from the UK broadcasters I am sick of seeing Poskitt all the time.

Our guy US rider Ricky Brabec has not been recorded...and reported his Honda let him down 12k from finish of stage 10.
After 3rd place finish Svitko evacuated to hospital---someone gave his all. hope he can continue.
 
Thought this was worth posting, Danny posted this up on FB. From one of the P2Ds he did. Faster than an RPG......friendly metal miltiamen
