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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

just wondering if its legal....

just wondering if I could call my buddy and tell him there is a check at mile 32 or such?
 
cool we just got these bluetooth/intercom deals and they have been working good....think its kinda funny dont knwo that it will really work
 
AMA rules are a NO GO on that topic... but between pit crews and cell phones, GPS systems and such there is alot of room for this to happen.

No! You can't convey "Secret Check" information in any way to other riders. A guy leading his minute, can slam on his brakes and scream "Check!" at the top of his lungs when he rounds a corner and spots the check flags. He can't stop and call his girl friend back at the gas stop or previous reset to tell his buddies on a later minute of the check mileage. I saw this brake and scream method a few times working a check this year.:busted:
 
If it is AMA rules...who would not want to ride on the same minute with their buddies. also, Leave the cheating to the other sports. Its all about the trhill, challenge and the fun of the seat time! Saw the 1st guy stopping and yelling "Check" before too. He gets scored at time he slammed em on but if behind stays out of sight...makes it hard to score them. Kinda like jumping on the grenade to save your buddys.

It is ama..and you draw for start minute...everyone seperate...I would just do it to help my buddy who is a c rider...
 
yes...farmiliar with ama enduro rules....can be upt to 4 or 5 per minute...staple per entries together or post entry together on same minute. Best way to teach is ride on my minute approach and don't pass me on the way to check ins approach. Then go like the dickens until the check out and reset. Let them try to time keep while doing so but serve as the "seeing eye dog" for them until they understand the concept. Best way to learn is to do. Kind of like a drinking game or playing poker!
 
I can see why some may be tempted to cheat if a lot of money was on the line i.e. NASCAR....but cheating to do better in a C class enduro??? Dude, that's lame!
 
Not wanting to cheat...want to totally stay within the rules....thank you very much...we use these intercoms riding all the time just was wondering if its legal...if not its no biggie...
