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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Riding the 450.

I just came from a ~12 miles or so of various lava-rock trails, making that sand you are riding so soft and smooth for riding :)...

AUG is not too far away in the future so your 1 yr anniversary is up coming ... Maybe you will be pain free by that time?
 
Hey DD you nailed that soft stuff really well. Think you have the 450 monkey off your back for sure. Funky music by the way.

I forgot about the music ... I'm guessing that was the 'techno sound' that was popular once upon a time in the past and lasted about as long as disco?
 
The name of that little tune, is something that I don't want to do with my bike: "Drop It".:D

Thats like saying the gun that shot me. Guns dont shoot people people shot people. Bikes don't crash, people crash bikes.

Nope. Wrong analogy. I crash from time to time, but seldom get bitten in the crash, but frankly, I don't remember much about how this one actually happened.
 
Both statements true to a point. I'm pretty sure there's been a time or two that I found my ass on the ground resulting from a distinct difference of opinion between me and the bike. I'm one of those weirdo's that believe machines have souls.

Ever said, "come on baby, you can do it" to your bike? I've promised oil changes, baths, fresh tires etc. to bikes and cars alike to get me outta some situation or another along the way.

Glad you had a good time DD.
 
And anything made to act in it's unnatural state will bite you.( airplanes want to be on the ground, motorcycles and bikes want to lay on their sides and on an on)

In a perfect world, you betcha. In my line of work all kinds of things interect with each other when the designers swear it shouldn't happen that way. Then again, if everything worked outta the box forever...I'd have to find a job doing something boring.:D

I name my cars and bikes. I tell them I love them, and I think they know it.

I talk to my transmitters too. I'm not that lonely, and I don't think the aliens are reading my thoughts...anymore.:excuseme:

You sound peaceful at least ... Do humanity a small favor and keep it that way, OK? :) ... No malice on my part towards anyone... Just a few simple words ...

Gravity? :) ... The first time man or woman accomplished 2 feet off the ground at the same time for the moment, gravity was put in the back seat. And yes, you gotta watch playing with mother nature ...
