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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

thinking of moving out west (again)

California~Komifornia.... I don't get where all the rederik comes from but I can tell you for a fact that I can ride my Two-Stroker year round pretty much where ever I want. The only places that I know of that adhere to
the Red Sticker thing is Prairy City and Carnegie. PC, I never even think about going to and Carnegie I can live without for four months. The Sierras don't enforce the Red Sticker thing. Even Mammoth Bar, which you actually have to pay
to ride at, allows Red Sticker year round. There's so much riding up in the Sierras whether it's single-track, dirt roads or blaze your own you could probably ride everyday for a year and still find new stuff. I haven't even touched on
Lake County, Mendocino County, the Coastal Mountains and so on. Then you've got SoCal, which I can't speak on personally, but I know has a gazzilion riding areas and MX Tracks and endless desert terrain. Oh and I forgot to mention
Nevada which is about a two and a half hour drive for me to ride prestine desert terrain. So call it what you want but California has probably got some of the most diverse riding you will find anywhere with the exception of Washington,
Oregon and Idaho, which happened to be out west also.

All of our SoCal USDA forest roads are green sticker or street legal vehicles only. The rangers will stop and check you and also get lots of assistance from LASD deputies on DRZ400s to do the same.

Hungry Valley SVRA is strict about Red Sticker compliance. It's dry down here during a good rain year so they don't mess around. They will stick an official coat hanger into your pipe to make sure you haven't "accidently" lost your spark arrestor too.

Maybe it's different in terms of enforcement up your way Jerbear, makes since as it sure seems the politicians in Sac breathe different air than everybody else...;)
 
I almost hesitate ....as it is a riders Eden...I don't want to share it....the Idaho panhandle is endless riding. Tight woods, ferns, cedars, old growth forests,lakes,lakes,lakes ..I have lived here 18 years and sometimes find trails I didn't even know about from friends, awesome ride groups, trail activist are pro bike .... New trails are built often, campgrounds full of dirt bikes and ride right out of the campground to single track nirvana ...plated 2 strokes on the street...ride <your 4 wheeler/ Utv to the store...take the trail home after work ........snowed out ? Go south 2 hr drive and ride...or get your snowmobile...next door 30 minutes each direction: Montana and Washington ...both full of awesome riding...so if you have to move think Coeur d Alene Idaho, Spokane Wa...west Montana kalispel,Missoula ......all have trout fishing,snow ski, dirt bike ,sleds,lakes and growth economy........ In 1997 I came to Cda,ID for vacation then went home to central California sold everything and moved here 3 weeks later .....my wife grew up here ...she hated cal.
 
It does sound like single track nirvana. Idaho is Good.. If I wasn't stuck here in SE. AZ with 9 rental properties to maintain here in town, 86 acres just outside of town and if I don't build on a section of a whole square city block I own when I retire in a few years. Which developers are trying to buy now. I would be out of here too. Maybe I should start selling now. I've thought about moving to maybe Farmington, New Mexico. I have an old neighbor I bought some property from some years back and went up to vist there and it had some awesome riding areas. They have some killer rock climber areas for 4 wheel drive events there that were just crazy. Dirt bikes all over the place.

I don't have much faith in our politicians but we've got the same chemtrail checkered skies up here as you probably do down there and we all have to breath it.:eek:
