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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

With all the dirt riding and racing the last few years this ol girl was stuck in the back of the garage. Last time I rode it was across country years ago when the volt meter started swinging wildly in the last 200 miles home. After a VR didn't solve it I bought a new stator and some other parts for maintenance, but never got around to working on it. It just sat on a battery tender. The battery finally stopped taking a charge so I bought a Lithium battery over a year ago, but still never actually took it for a ride, just started it occasionally. I decided it was past time for that test ride on Saturday. I dug it out, aired up the tires and washed it. Then went for a 55 mile ride. Looks like she just needed a battery after all.PXL_20210116_234515941.jpg
