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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

For All you Racers, Next August:

Inaugural running of 'Motomotion'- A XC race to benefit the Rick Hansen foundation. (he's the guy that has rode his wheelchair across Canada & around the world & done numerous other accomplishments, for those who may be unfamiliar with the name.)

The event will be at Chicopee Ski club and summer resort in Kitchener Ont. This is a ski hill in the center of a 4 cities urban area(Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge-Guelph) and has all kinds of local accomodations, restaurants etc. within a couple miles of the site.
It's a full service skihill, so spectators & participants will be well served with concessions, real bathrooms etc.(no portapotties:D)

Some initial details & link to Facebook page:
