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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Roger Lee Hayden will wear the #34 at the Indy MotoGP. Riding a Moriwaki Honda in the Moto2 class. Beautiful bike, if you're in to Red, White & Blue. So as usual I'll be an American homer, but a great fight between Rossi & Jorge with a little Pedrosa thrown in would be epic.

Spies on pole and Nicky 3rd. Rossi fell over twice. Gonna be a good one tomorrow.

Holy Cow**************************************** :cheers: I'm stoked, come on boys**************************************** This IS the USGP, win one for Ole Glory**************************************** :cheers:

No favorites for me, Ben is a great rider & he's proved it, Nick has a championship & Ducati just signed him for 2 more years as Valantino's team-mate. So things are good with Nick. Colin Edwards is the one guy that is in the twilight of his career. It will be sad to see the Texas Tornado, with his wild sense of humor gone. I'd love to see Colin Edwards on the podium at Indy. But in the end, we all know that Pedrosa, Rossi, Stoner & Lorenzo are all in the mix. :D Great racing tomorrow.....

Good to see #34 flying again. :cool:

I agree! But...it's kinda weird, too. I mean, #34 means Kevin Schwantz, ya know? It's kinda like when I see another Giant wearing #22. I don't like it because it ain't Will Clark :excuseme:

I really enjoyed watching Kevin Schwantz. It was always crash or win with that guy :lol:

Yeah I like Colin Edwards too, his signature is on my 04 Aprilia RSV 1000 Factory bike.

Colin Edwards was pitted right next to us at the WERA Grand National Finals in Atlanta in 1991. He was a skinny little kid, probably 16 or so. He raced the 750, 600 and 250GP classes and won every race he entered. He was sponsored by some shop in Texas and they gave him an RC30 to ride...lucky kid! He was incredibly cocky at the awards banquet afterwards, but I guess he'd earned it :) He went pro the following year.

I've always liked him and really wanted him to do well in MotoGP. It's a shame he didn't enter the ring a little earlier in his career.

Very nice...I have the John Kosinski Arai that I still wear, but it probably needs to go up in the closet for safe keeping.

I had a Bubba Shobert, then a Wayne Rainey. I was bummed when I had to replace the Rainey...I loved that helmet! I loved my Arai Haga, too, til it got stolen :mad:

Well, Indy has come & gone...Spies made me proud to make the podium, It was a good race, not the best, but a good one.....

Nicky looked like he was having fun on the Ducati dirt tracker....

I still have my old Kocinski Shoei. It's in a right old state, but I could never part with it.

I imagine his team boss was a bit nervous about Nicky putting on the hot shoe again. No worries though, he looked like he was really enjoying himself. That Duke sounds fine too...

Joe Kopp won a mile race in Las Vegas earlier this year on a Ducati...1st time since Ricky Graham's Honda that a non Harley has won a Grand National Mile event....That would have been mid to late '80's????

Kocinski had a nice Woods Rotax dirt tracker with lots of bling.....

Great Video, thx!!!

When Nicky gets done with MotoGP I could see him coming home & racing a little dirt track, look at that smile....:D

Best Spies pic I've seen from Indy...The Texas Blur

Wonderful pics BadMotoWeazal!

I guess it's going to be a strange season for Nicky next year. Rossi will bring a lot of expertise (and sponsorship) to Duke and Nicky will have to fight tooth and nail to make sure the bike suits him too. But the guy is a fighter - he proved that at Indy by pushing as hard as he did after he ripped his knee slider off on that drain. That had to hurt...

If he does go back to the dirt ovals then that would make a lot of people happy, but I'm sure he's not done with GP just yet. :thumbsup:
 
I'm with ya...Nick & Vale get along great & with J. Burgess coming to Duc with Vale it can only help Nick too. They were good teammates back on the Honda's & I'm sure not much has changed....When they go back to 1000cc bikes in 2012, Nicky will show a lot of improvement because it is ore adapted to the way he rides. Remember how fast the Ducati was at 1000cc. Rossi made a public statement about wanting to get rid of all the electronics & traction control on the bike & I agree. And when Valantino talks MotoGP & Dorma listen
