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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Tennessee /Kentucky /Arkansas winter riding?

I am busy most of next week, but starting friday I can get away pretty much anytime. It is warm now but very wet, we rode last weekend, slick but a lot of fun. Make sure you have pretty fresh tires.
 
OK, loading the truck and final touchs to the bikes. Were headed to St Joe state park in Mo. It supposed to be 50-60 degres friday and sat with lots of sun.

Thanks for everyones help.
 
We had a great ride. Only 2 minor issues both happening at the end of each day. Day one after getting our bearings and doing some bike set up the rear brake rotor on my sons TXC shattered into 4 pieces. A call to the nearest dealer(grassroots BMW/ husky) solved our problem. They didn't have one in stock but actually pulled one off a bike on the floor. Awesome customer service!!! We were back riding in no time! I can thank grassroots in cape giradeau, mo enough! Day 2 was even better. We meet an old friend there who knew the trails well. After a full day of riding in 63 degree temps (9dgrees at home) we started to head back to the van. Cleaning rock gardens,Los etc. until....I got a case of over confidence. I say this as I type this with my left hand. I was hoping a good size log on the way out and tipped over...crack my wrist on a branch sticking out of the log. A broke the radius bone clean through. Riding back to the van with a broken wrist trying to hold the throttle open was the most pain I have felt in a long time. Made it back, luck to have my son along to long everything up and drive the 10 hours home and sit in the er with me till 4am. Thanks everyone!
