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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

really good snowbike vid

Good vid! Just getting these things airborne at all is very difficult, much less making it look easy and smooth. Just another confirmation that pro riders are VERY good at what they do.
 
Lots of ideas here, that's freaking awesome.

If they added a studded front wheel and made the studded track so it could swivel right and left so it could lean on the ice can you say ice racing?

There's another video in that group with a dirt bike with one ski. Add two skis and the largest trials tire with ice studs. On frozen snowmobile trails it would rock.

Even having both tires studded on a dirt bike on the frozen snowmobile trails is a hoot. You can't fall.

It looks easy till I try it. These guys are pros and risk takers. There very good at what they do. Don't try this if your a novice.

And don't even think that quads are safe. Picking two lines is way harder than picking one line. Don't even think your as fast as a dirt bike. I'm 300lbs and thought a quad couldn't throw me over the bars. Not only once but three times. I'm a hard learner. Every time I look at a quad I think about my breaking my ribs three times. My left side still hurts to this day twenty++ years later. Bikes are safer trust me I know.
 
I like the line at the end..."It's not about just hitting jumps, or always going big..."

Yeah right...those guys are nutz. Going to try it before I'm teets up for sure.
