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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRIME TIME FOR "THE MOTOCROSS FILES"- PRESENTED BY LUCAS
OIL ON SPEED THIS SATURDAY, MARCH 7TH, 2009
Ronnie Lechien and Joel Robert episodes Husqvarna Motorcycles
sponsors.
FULLERTON, CA. (MARCH 2, 2009) "The Motocross Files" is getting two
prime time slots on Speed this Saturday with re-airs of the highly touted Ronnie
Lechien and Joel Robert episodes. The shows will air back to back at 10:00pm and
10:30pm (Eastern Time) and 7:00pm and 7:30pm on the West Coast. This is the
first of several re-airs Speed is doing with the series as the John DeSoto and Jeff
Stanton episodes will be re-airing as well on March 10th, 2009. A prime time airing
is important to provide the largest possible audience with a chance to
see the show perhaps for the first time.
Also joining as a Motocross Files series sponsor is Husqvarna Motorcycles.
Husqvarna will use the opportunity to promote their current "Hero Deals" sales
promotion with a new commercial produced by Pipeline Digital Media. This will be
the Husqvarna's first substantial television promotion in the United States in over
two decades.
"We are extremely pleased that Speed is giving the show a major slot in their
Saturday night line-up. It will provide a larger audience for the series which is
already so well-received by the motorcycle community" said Todd Huffman,
Producer of The Motocross Files. "With a brand message that claims "Heroes Ride
Huskys" Husqvarna is a perfect partner for The Motocross Files. Plus, the timing of
these episodes coincides nicely with Husqvarna's current 'Hero Deals' sales
promotion." Huffman added.
"Todd Huffman presented a unique opportunity for Husqvarna to join "The
Motocross Files" an use it as a cost-effective way of extending our reach to a larger
audience which compliments our print and online advertising campaigns", said
Scot Harden, National Sales and Marketing Manager for Husqvarna Motorcycles
NA, LLC. "Since the early days of off-road racing, Husqvarna has been
synonymous with the history and evolution of the sport and our association with a
quality national TV series like "The Motocross Files" makes good sense for us,"
Harden added.

"Back to the basics" and "Never forget your roots" are 2 of my favorite motivational sayings.
 
Forgot about this, should have set the recorder when I read the thread.


How did it turn out?
 
I searched for future episodes on Dish network, and checked the website TV schedule, they seem to be done showing them.
 
They actually aired the Hero commercial during the Supercross errrr... I mean "The James Stewart Show" on Speed yesterday.
