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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Out and About (Terra, Strada)

I vote for a stolen bike and they dumped it out in the boonies. Could even be insurance fraud. Dump it where there is nobody around, report it stolen, insurance pays it off.
 
Suspicious all right! either way he would taken his/the backpack..

hmmm, I bet he was near by watering his plantation:D:eek: :busted:

anyhows Great pics!
 
I called the County Sheriffs office yesterday to check up on this.
They acknowledged receiving my e-mail, as they did when I called them the day I sent it.
They did not have any record that anything was done beyond forwarding my e-mail on to the closest towns Police department (30 miles from where I found the bike).

I am pretty sure the rider of that bike was not anywhere near where I found it.
I scouted around the area on foot and on the bike.

I do believe the rider was hurt and/or exhausted.
I saw where they had crashed it not far from where I eventually found the bike.
I am surprised they left the back pack, but there are odd things about this whole situation.

Its about 1 1/2 hours away from where I live, I will try to get out there again this weekend to see if it is still there.
 
Took the Terra out today. I had driven out some dirt roads on my 250 back in the summer and looked on the google satellite and noticed there was a pond/lake/watering hole out somewhere close, so I headed for that today.

Dang weather was near perfect. A bit chilly in the morning, but once up into the hills, awesome. Recent rains settled the dust and deep sand.

I found it, tucked back out of the way, bunch of ducks took off when I walked up.

Terra ran perfect, and the Rekluse worked perfect and what a joy to ride. Never choked it out, tractor'd through tough stuff like a champ.
 
Just looking at that sky and scenery, AZ seems the be the place to be in November.
Very tempted to put a recluse in my Terra
 
The past few years I've taken my Terra camping in the Mitchell River National Park for the Domino Rally. This year was no exception, but the image is a photosphere. After you open the link you should be able to use the mouse scrollwheel to zoom in and out and the left button to drag it around. It will show as a 360° sphere in Chrome and Firefox.

I love the Wifey booster seat.
That is a big complaint of my wife is she gets sick of "looking at the back of my helmet".
What is your height vs your wife's?

Hi Tokor,

I am also new to the forum. I'm sure my English is worse than yours.

Start of the week took a few days off and went in search of some twisty roads in the Victorian High Country - pleased to report I found lots.

You know when you see a sign like this its going to be a good day.Start of a good day.jpg

Based myself in Omeo for 2 nights, first day did the Mitta Mitta, Lockharts Gap, Mt Beauty, Falls Creek loop. 340 kilometres of great sealed twisty roads - 6 hours in the saddle :D

Day 2 back up to Falls Creek, down to Mt Beauty, across to Bright then along the Great Alpine Rd across Mt Hotham before stopping in Omeo for lunch. 270 kilometres of fun. Then headed home along the back roads.

Mt Hotham

Great area to explore for those that like sealed roads. For those that play in the dirt there are heaps of tracks to lose yourself on. An area well worth exploring.
