• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 have known that there was plenty of dirt just a hop, skip and a jump away from my humble little digs for the last 4 years since I moved up north. I just never bothered o act on going out there. I pass by the trailhead just about every day, and it is only a half mile from the apartments. I just have to drive 5 miles to where my bikes are stored, pick one up and haul it back to the apartment parking lot. There, I can stage at my leisure before heading out. There is a huge amount of two track and a fair amount of singletrack out there to the south and west. None of it has any signage, so it's just explore and mark on Google Earth. It takes a while. I have been cautiously poking around on the Xtrainer for the last few weeks, learning a little more of the area with each ride. Here are some pix from those rides.
