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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

You talking about Steve Corrie?
I know he's racing a Husky 430 auto for this race.

Yep, that's the character. I've known Steve for ~6 years, since he went on a Baja Bound ride with us. Right off the bat I liked how Steve paced himself and "how" he rides in Baja. Having full trust in Steve I lined him up to race with my buddy Adam Mitchell, owner of the Husky. This will be Adams 1st race in Baja and I wanted someone solid as his partner, like Steve (no I'm not kissing ass, just sayin').
It's a 430, but it's not an automatic.

...wait, Jonah Street is racing a Husky? Which one?

Jonah is a last minute fill in for the injured Antonio Narino (So.Cal. guy). I believe it's an '87 430. I saw it yesterday but didn't think to take pics of it. I think it will be # 42. If I'm wrong then it's # 65. Either way, that team (with the 2 Huskys) has those 2 entries and both main riders (Antonio and Russ) got injured so they have new riders - Jonah solo on one bike and duo of Cameron Corfman/Brian Schmuckle (So.Cal) on the other.

I'm riding a Honda XR, but you don't want to hear about that red bike....
 
Wow, I have really been asleep/busy. This is in 2 days!

"I'm riding a Honda XR, but you don't want to hear about that red bike...."

Now ay, what a small world! Maybe TD gave you a story about it? But for sure it has a bit of history. Part of which makes me kinda nervous....

1988 xr600r. Bought it for $500 (with CA plate!) as a pile of paint overspray and rust. Couldn't get the cylinder off (frozen bolts) so we're racing with 22 year-old top end. Looks a LOT better now!

Here's an XT to be ridden by a guy from back east
