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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Howdy, last night I had the privilege to attended a fund raiser for a brain injury rehab center named High Hopes.

The event was held at Tom White's (Of White Brothers) museum in Southern California. It was a GREAT evening.

I was able to meet Tom and his wife as well as they're son who has a brain injury from a motorcycle accident and is treated at High Hopes.

There were more amazing bikes there than I can even describe and I'll try to post as many pictures as I can, some are the the best photography, my camera took this of all nights to act up.

I cant imagine a better evening, charbroiled burgers, watching On Any Sunday with friends while eating, checking out the cool bikes and most of all raising money for a truly worthy cause.

The web address to the museum is www.earlyyearsofmx.com

You will be able to see much better pictures of the bikes than I took, and lots of cool info about the early days of our sport
Plus a link to High Hopes.

My favorite bike was a two cylinder Husky called the Viking.
