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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Go husky USA. This is brilliant. "RideMore Journal" Vol 1 Winter 2011 just showed up in my mail box. Cool big mag with tons of Husky USA info in it, dealer guide, nice opening welcome and info from Husky NA prez Kris Odwarka, Enduro X stuff, Dan from Motoxotica 500th sales picture, 24 hours info, EICMA, Mew, Salminen, Burson, mandi, Fred (FAR), etc. Center has a huge brochure of the bikes and specs, the ranch ride (looked fun) and huge picture of Bill from Bills, Juha CH Racing bike info, Cool parts section with pix and prices, Tim from (CH) and Robberts bikes in there. Very cool stuff.

GREAT job getting this info out ion a cool professional manner Husky NA
 
This was a surprise for us (Tim gave me the spoiler via phone call, he got his issue first) in Ride More.
Although clued in prior about a Husky happening that day, the Ranch Husky dealer thing was much bigger than I realized before (i am just a customer), until the extent was public. I stopped by in between the AM and PM tests of the VCMC Anza Enduro* in the outer hills of the Ranch that day, said hello to the folks I know and after the enduro and I stopped by again to chat as they were closing up the show after the event.
These are nice friendly people at Husky NA, with genuine interest in what we (consumers/customers/riders/racers) are doing. I even had Husky's Brent H cheering me through the rock pile section during one of the enduro specials.
All the articles and stuff in the newsletter are fun and exciting, as a fan I think its a great thing.

*Nick(511) won with LR(310) in 3rd OA, with 2 other class wins that day for Husky(450,125) as well
 
Thanks Kelly for posting this!

I couldn't agree more with both yourself and Rob. Genuinely a pleasure to see this seasonal Mag coming out and detailing all the recent Highlights.

Husqvarna NA is jsut up the hill from my work here in Corona. I have stopped in to speak with Kris Odwarka. Good things are happening over there. Feels like walking into a big happy family gathering.

I also was suprised to see my pic in there from riding the MX Main @ Cahuilla Creek MX... very cool...then I saw Rob's bike and comments so I had to give him a call****************************************!

Nice subtle touch of including the Social Media into the Mag....

Good Job HVNA!

Page 18, the last quote in the Facebook section is mine. :D

It's out of context. I was lamenting not having any funds for a '12 model. But nevertheless, I'm famous now. I can retire and just rake in the royalties!
 
How do I get one? Closest dealer is three hours away.

I don't know if you can get one GP. They do a thorough extensive background check:

They use to have the Drone take spy photos of us but it crashed and your pictures are on board. They won't give it back so:

Here are the new qualifications:

1 Can't ride with KTM buddies.

2 Can't have more than a year boat racing experience.

3 Have to have more than 2 Husky's in same household.

4 Have to be a member of Cafe Husky for over 10 years.

Just teasing!

Wait just a minute you horse riding corn farmer!

1. They are not really buddies, I use them for traction on hills.

2. I am the one that after badly breaking my leg on a dirt bike, decided I should retire from boat racing after 25 years, but keep riding dirt bikes.

3. I have 8 Husqvarnas. wr125, tc250, 3 weed eaters, chainsaw, hedge trimmer,and leaf blower.

4. Not fooling me, Cafe Husky has not been in existence for 10 years, and I have been here for a good portion.

All in good fun, maybe I can make it down to Upstate Cycle in SC. during the holidays.
