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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Has anybody heard the news about the motorized vehicle ban in the pine barrens and seen the map designating which roads we are allowed to ride on? Not good. Only main roads with a 20 mph limit. All secondary roads are off limits. Guess we are gonna all have to be outlaws. They put this law in place to stop people from damaging the forest. The ones doing it do not abide by laws in the first place, Responsible riders are the ones who will get effected by this. What a shame.
 
did you talk to Rob Auermuller?

he is full of shit! he is behind all the closures and its more like 90% of the roads. they cut down good large trees to block off roads.

bottom line is this.. it's america.. and you simply can't just do something without good reason and public input and review..

NJ is a communist state and few elite impose their rule on everyone. now they want to privatize the forest..
 
Couldn't have said it better. I wasn't aware of the ban but last time I went to ride,more towards the LBI area, a commonly used trail had quite a few big trees downed across it. I know it is thanks to people trashing the place but my friends and I have, on more than one occasion, cleaned up our little run we had going. After a Friday or Saturday night there would be beer cans everywhere and smoldering tire/debris. And now we have to suffer. I still take the chance and always will till something changes. What's the point of having an area like the pine barrens if you can't enjoy it.
I guess they are just waiting for a chance to sell chunks of it for houses.
 
I thought some of those roads were fire roads designed for fire vehicles to get through ...i have come upon many roads blocked by large trees ..what would happen if there ever was a fire and equipment cant get through..ive seen the same thing where large trees are intentionally cut down blocking the roads..ive seen this near Lacey Twsp
