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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

who is riding Father's day?

I knew I could count on you! :applause: :applause:

Adir and Leo are in as well it seems. same time, same place?
 
I'll ride but not sure when it is ... I've had time off the bike this week and it has been raining ...
 
hehehehe.....hectic social calendar of my 5 and 8 yr old girls and have a POPs still kicking around so.....if I can squeak in a ride early Saturday morning.....that be my plan. Sunday will be reserved to getting a tank through the cottage boat and encouraging the old guy to get on the skiis....me...a given :)
 
FUNKY CHICKEN tomorrow in Elkton Oregon one of the best courses anywhere it should be perfect conditions .
 
Rode both days with my son. He was waiting on parts for his KDX so I let him ride my Husky CR144. He was skeptical as he rode my TE310 the week before and was not a fan. Well he took to the 144 in a heartbeat. By the end of the first day, he was wanting to buy my 144! The little Husky had just enough chug to it for the technical parts of the trail and plenty of juice when the trail opened up. The 144 kit with the fmf fatty and Lectron carb are a lethal combo. He blasted me so hard in one section I had to stop and clear my goggles. Best Father's Day ever!

Sounds good and I'm not too surprised on your son and that 310 ...I'm basing that off the fact that riders here, not the track racers, but the trail guys here really like the 2t bikes ... More weight is always an issue on a 4T and these guys are not blasted as much with advertising about the 4t bikes.

When out and tied a couple trails together via a twisty ~1 mile a creek bed...Ended up at one of my favorite spots and along the backside of the creek, it was actually a little isolated :)

Actually he had issues with the engine braking of the thumper. His lack of exposure to thumpers is my doing. Until I got the 310, I rode YZ250s for years. He has been riding a KDX200 and a GasGas300 the last few years.

With that said, the Husky tiddlers handle amazing and my suspension guy nailed the setting on my forks.

Here is a pix of him on the 144.

Not husky related but still a great weekend. On Saturday, 6/14 I had the chance to spent Saturday with my oldest in his new location of Emporium Pa. Loads of gravel/clay/dirt/two track roads through state forest lands that are open year round.
Up valleys following streams, on ridges following mountain tops and just some other stupid fun stuff. Somehow we were gone 14 hours and did 244 miles...but you know how that works. He has his DRZ400 and I had my new to me '03 KLR650. I know somewhat a pig, but two wheels and a big single thumper...can't go wrong. Especially bone stock, 1 owner, 8000 miles for $2,600. It was a good time and looking forward to more...
