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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Interesting day out on the Husky.

Dont know what its like elsewhere in the world but here in Britain with its over crowding etc everyone is scrambling to make what bits of the countryside there is, theres and us on the bikes are slowly being squeezed into smaller and smaller places to ride.
Basically as were on motorbikes out on the trails were not liked to much by the green brigade militant walker types.
Anyway, on sunday a few of us were out around Norfolk doing some of the trails on our bikes when this happens.....

We'd seen them ahead so instead of spooking the horses we decided to stop. Just aswell really.
It has a good side to it as its made for good relations between us and the horsey types.

There you go, good example of helping each other out. I like horses anyway so would have hated to see it hurt. Good thing Tony left the camera running and Kev was holding my bike :thumbsup:

This was the rest of the day.:D

Yep...we do the same in WA state. We always turn our engines off when we come up on horses. The reception in that horse forum was amazing! Good job capturing it.
 
Well done. Giving consideration results in consideration given back. It goes a long way toward bridging the gap.
 
Great job guys :thumbsup:
My wife has a horse and the owner of the stable where she keeps it doesn't really care for bikes that much. I'll have to show this to him.

It does not matter if a hundred motorcyclist are courteous to horseman it only take one or two to screw it up for us all. And that's who they remember...the bad ones.
