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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Last Dog Standing

Jeez man don't you know you're too old for that crazy kid's stuff.........but age and wisdom has you very well prepared that's for sure, love the pull strap!!
 
Every year I find new things to help me I use to carry the strap in a side pocket then thought why not hook it up in the front and it worked I also found out just how soft you can run a Golden 523KX tire as I was running a 4 year old moose with holes drilled in it. It sure worked in the rocks but on the hard pack stuff I swear I had a flat Now I have to wait till Jan to do this again at King of the Moto Some day Robert you should come join me
 
Was bummed to miss LDS this year, especially with the cooler temps compared to last year. Can't turn down a whole day of overtime.
 
I could do a lap in about 2 days.... but only if I was a Checkers.

sheesh- I'm out of breath watching that. (there's a minor repeat at ~35mins. that's a tough chimney)
 
John you impress me with your grit. I am turning away a little from the grueling stuff. I want to ride, not hack my way up tires and beat the crap out of my balls and bike. After our last extreme (and it was a tough one) ride in Tecate it took me weeks to recover due to broken ribs and another related issue. I will come out and race a gnarley enduro or XC or H&H but if its not rideable at my skill level I'm not going to dismount and tow my bike up stuff or down stuff.
As our Hammer down ride sponsors say its gotta be tough, AA tough and skill level high but always needs to be rideable for A/ Experts (not just from Jarvis and those super
guys).
 
Robert this race was not that hard if you took out 2 hills and the tires everything else was ride able So take out the 2 hills Leave the tires so the spectators can watch I have done KOM 2 times on this 300 and not changed any parts also LDS 2 times no parts replaced still on the original clutch If you ride it carefull you will not hurt anything The older I get the slower I want to go So the only thing that still gives me the same response it super tuff Back in the day I thought the Nationals were so hard but now on a good set up bike they are to easy and way to fast but still the next best thing out there I cleaned up my bike last night and everything is ok just a basic prep and it is ready to go
 
how come they disabled the teeter-totter? Cycle News has a pic of Webb going over it; looked cool. I would've liked to see it in action.

It's probably one of those things where everybody says "hell, I could do that..." but when hit with the reality of it: "whoa! ...that mf'er is high" and immediately back off.
