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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I love my riding buddies. Always wanting to help out, I have not been riding too much because of this nagging knee injury. We went riding Sunday morning & my knee felt good, so there is this neat little hill by a creek . My first shot at the hill I got a crossed up at the bottom of the hill & wasn't able to hit it full speed. So the video please....
My favorite part was when someone said "Downhill Challenge", I know all about that.
 
Awesome

Steep hill with very little run, great job
 
It was a lot of fun...We were coming to the hill to ride it, but in the meantime we had a '05 MTK 300 that had the floats stuck & it was draining gas. So we played & worked on that whille we were there. The 2nd vid was a 2011 Gas Gas EC 300 Six Days & my friends 2008 XC-250 bored to a 300 with the LHRB. That 300 4T is the best handling little bike I've ridden in a long time & it weight 20 pounds less than my 400. It was a great day cause nobody got hurt (well my pride hurt a little, but that heals quickly) and everybody made it back with no serious issues. It was hot though, 100+ with the heat index. We rode another 15 minutes, then went to a sweet spot & sat in a nice, cold, rocky creek & cooled our heals. I need to get my helmet cam working again, I face planted a pine tree about a year ago & now the GoPro doesn't work too well or at all.
 
Ahhh, I have an old snow skiing injury I guess. It still haunts me in my old age LOL. I Recently (9-10 weeks ago) I tried to climb a pine tree that was growing out of a berm, fell awkwardly & twisted my knee. Just a slight tear of my MCL & tweeked my ACL. No surgury, but if turned just right it gives me pain.
 
looks like great riding country there

Thanks, it's not Gods gift to off-roaders but Alabama does have some nice, varying terrain. All of that trail is in a very large watershed, lots of rocks & dark, fetile soil. And of course chert, which seems to be Bama's greatest composition of dirt. LOL
