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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

all this coverage and big money video contracts......and go check the riders race payouts... its still really grim that only a very few earn enough from teams and sponsors to make a decent living.

Most those riders were just scared kids on that stage... With the adults saying the most. Trey Canard was the adult that spoke the words that only a big man can live by. We all are not big men. We just happen to have 1 swinging.

The young will always be exploited by the adults (Adults are really just old, young ones that learned what growing up?) ... Best to get an education to combbat them and grow up as quick as possible because this song ain't gonna change soon... Who did not like the moment when the hot girl at mic mentioned 'they are trying to get the covenanted 18-34yr olds interested in the sport and then marched even younger looking hot hot hot babes on stage? This is all 100% fine with me because it is reality here and every where the word 'sponsor' is used to mean ~bigger-than-you-have-$... This is what makes the world we live in today go round and round ... Get used to it...

In case anyone missed it, at the 6:14 mark is where the Husqvarna brand is welcomed on board as a sponsor ... Husky was the show here, same as on race day. Husky was the brand that provided something new to the racing.

Say what you want about KTM take over of Husky,but all Husky fans should agree, it is nice to see the brand doing so well this soon. How long has it been since Husky did this good at a super cross event? How bout never!!

While I am pleased with the great start Husky has in Supercross, & knowing how hard it is to finish well in any Supercross race, they were hardly mentioned during the broadcast. It's kind of an underwhelming debut on such a grand stage for such a prestigious & historical Manufacturer. I think the return of husky deserved more attention.
