Awesome. All of it. As we have met I know how small you are and thats a big tall 400 pound bike you seem to have mastered. Very cool.

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Very nice, as always.
I, on the other hand just did a round trip to Idaho. Ice storms in the Columbia River Gorge both directions....not so much fun
Did you take the motor home or a Benz?
The AWD Benz going and added a Mustang Convertible for the return trip. ....now lets stop hijacking Tami's thread :-)

A slow red/beige V6 convertible.
I should drive it down the NorCal coast. I hear that Woodschick took some cool pictures there.
Note to self: Keep a close eye on those shady characters Xcuvator and oregonsage. Ban if necessary.
I've got a garage full of bikes and a comfy couch
Beautiful (and cold)
If you ever want to ride the windy (wind-eee) roads around Napa, I know a great place for a free lunch
Hey...I thought there was no such thing as a free lunch??
Thanks, Kelly. Don't know that I'd say I've mastered it yet, but I did manage to keep myself off the floor. It's a start
I feel like a total dork duking it out with traffic in SF on it, though. I need some softer springs front and rear. I had 3/8" sag before I left and 1000 really bumpy miles later I'd picked up a whopping 1/8" Hey, Steve! This bike probably won't see some of the gnarly stuff we've done with the 610, but I'm sure I'll manage to get in over my head before too long
I'll be sure to keep the camera battery fully charged

WOW, a month later and I'm just now reading this. As always, Woods, your trip reports are absolutely amazing. The scenery and pics
are breathtaking. Sounds like you guys were well prepared for the cold weather. I've experienced having to ride in snowy conditions and not
being totally geared up for it, not fun. Luckily we were just a few miles from our cabin.
Thanks for another awesome trip report, I'd say you and Eric are living the dream.

Thanks, jerbear! I'd say you're right
Where you been, anyway?Thanks, jfoulkrod
I've got to get my "Pozo on the 610's" report going before I forget what the hell happened that weekend

Well, you know I like your RRs and I'm trying to keep up, but I need to ask what a Pozo is... Pozo-Pozo.....? I know I'm going to look dumb when you explain.

Pozo is a riding area in the Las Padres National Forest near the central coast of CA. Eric and I went down there a few weeks ago on MLK Day for a few days. We camped and rode the trails on our 610's. It was beautiful and there was nobody there on a holiday weekend
I'm on my way home now from a 4-day weekend that included a bit of Death Valley...the rocky bit...so I've got ride reports piling up everywhere at the moment

OK thanks for that.
Ive been thinking of DV next month, so I'll be interested to see how it was. I have the 7day forecast for Furnace Creek bookmarked, but haven't looked for a while.
How come you have alll the fun?

I see and hear that a lot from the rider community.
I think we understand life............. better than most............
We all seem to enjoy the truly old cemeteries........reflection......especially climbing back on the bike.
