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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husky pit shirts

I will get right too it. The race wear options for us Husky riders is slim. I thought with the release of the Husky fashion show stuff last year we would see some stuff, but alas it is in customs somewhere or you either have to figure out pounds to dollars to Euros and add in VAT and then postage that would buy a nice meal. I also wasn’t too keen on how the red, black, and white looked with the “armband” motif (if you get my drift!)
Also it was the holidays coming up so I thought about getting some pit shirts/mechanic shirts done as presents for my dealer, mechanic, and local Husky riding partners.
Well a local embroidery shop did these up for me. Not as dreadfully expensive as the ones promised from last year (They do exist…….. saw them on Kearney at the GNCC!)
All embroidered…no patches here. All stitched and backed on the back with that felt looking reinforced material to prevent it from separating.
Why am I posting this? One…thought they looked cool and also to show where there’s a will, there’s a way and secondly, the leg work, patterns, and the whole shebang is done so if anyone wanted one, it cold be done.
Nice 35% cotton 65% polyester. Cold washes, drip dry or tumble on delicate setting. Your name on right chest. H and Racing on left. Back is about 40 cm across! Shirt pictured is a medium for Fran at Bottones. (Yes Norm…X mas is ruined..you get one too.) Got about 10 made for buds. Can do them if anyone desires. Not cheap but not over $150 like the ones they promised. Can do for $85 plus shipping.(normally like $10 in US to west coast and a litle cheaper east of Mississipi. US and Canada. Small to 2XL. Might be a extra small too but not sure. Small fits a female size 5 nicely.
Nice for lounging or crashing through a sea of orange as you step to the top of the podium!

Sorry for the blurry as the camera is a cheapo. look real nice if anyone is intersted, PM me. And no I cannot get you these by the holidays!
Red s real red, much deeper than the slight orangish hue in the pics. (I think the flash made it lok that way)
