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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

LUPINO IN ACTION AT GERMAN MX2 GP

It was yet another positive outing for the Ricci Racing Husqvarna team at the ninth round of the Motocross World Championship in Teutschenthal in Germany, where Alessandro Lupino finished in a solid 17th and 12th place in the weekend's two heats.

After a disastrous qualifying, Lupino proved his talent by fighting through the pack from a dead last starting positing and climbing 14 positions to finish in 17th place. He followed this up by finishing 12th in the second 19-lap race. These results put Lupino in 12th place in the championship standings.

It was an unlucky weekend for his team-mate Michael Leib, who struggled at the German circuit, making many errors and falls in the first leg, where he injured his ribs and was unable to participate in the second round.

Let's hope ML can recover and continue to pursue his Husky riding days ...
 
Lets hope that the Ricci Team can continue to get deeper into the R&D and coax more boost from the little TC. They are on a reasonable time table for world level racing competition (it's a new motor,again). And dont read me wrong the bike is plenty powerful for amateur and local pro racing, it just needs more at the factory level of racing (those are mostly all "works" level machines in MX2).
