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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Pastrana - X Games 15 - new trick!

Those are great vids! I love that goon riding stuff. Seriously though, I wonder if that actually got started as some sort of training exercises. For example: feet off pegs= knowing how to recover. Or just getting out of position and knowing how to ride out of it naturally. Years ago I used to spar with an up and coming young rider that was trained to get out of normal position while practicing, because when you really start pushing it in heats, things are going to go wrong.
 
Does any one know how badly Travis got hurt from his attempt at the backflip 360 at X Games? He landed from a great height directly on his hip, and he was SLOW to get up and hobble out. I can't imagine he came away from that with just a bruise.

Maybe he'll give up on the FMX competitions when he sees his rally career getting jeopardized. Probably not. Guy has a couple screws loose!
