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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

3 days of killer wind and I am a nice shade of red now, but had a blast. Nick Burson was awesome as always. Ricky brabec showed everyone how he could hole-shot the start throttling with his left hand and his right on the rear fender, was amazing. Can't wait for Primm. :)

They start the riders with their left hand on the throttle and the right hand on the rear fender. When the call is sounded, you must switch hands to clutch and throttle. Brabec rode 200 yards down the start and around the corner with his left hand holding the throttle wide open, and his right hand still on the rear fender.
 
Jake looked good on the track this weekend, he rode really well. I actually saw quite a few new Huskys out there. Didn't get to spend much time with him, he was busy coaching his gf a few rows back from Stacy and I on the start.
 
I came back red and a nice shade of tan from the wind and dust. I get to see every single bike that comes across the start line into the motocross section as I am the first turn captain. There were quite a few of the newer Husky's, and a couple really haulin the mail.

My younger brother took second in the vintage experts on his 125 Honda Elsinore. He was leading till his pipe came loose and was dragging on the ground. The guy on the CZ 400 that won couldn't pull the mighty 125 until the pipe came loose. It's one of my old race bikes.

Good times had by all

I saw him, he rode right past my trailer. I felt like signalling him down to fix his pipe, though he wouldn't of heard me.
 
We were pointing and screaming at him when he came in the motocross section and he finally figured it out and backed off a little. He only lost about a minute in the last two laps.
 
The Hilltoppers had a good turnout for Sunday's races as well. At the end of the day in the combined Heavyweight/Lightweight Intermediate/Expert race, Evan Kelly made up for yesterday's DNF in the WCGP with a wire-to-wire win followed by Nick Burson, who'd spent the previous few days with his Purvines Racing Beta teammates at the Nevada 200 Trail Ride.

With a reported 966 entries for the weekend, there were probably at least that many individual stories. While there's not room or time for all of them, congratulations to all who took part.

I did this race @10 years ago, it had rained for a couple of days before the event and was sunny the day of the race......ridiculously perfect conditions. I had a race long battle with guy on a RM250 I was on my KTM250. That road section was memorable and the entire course was fun (but fast). Nice fotos from Mark and Tinken.
