3.64 | Cafe Husky

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Hey guys just thought I'd share my embarrassing story regarding my terra that occurred yesterday. I ran out of fuel :mad:

. I average around 51.5 mpg and went 3.64 gallons used on my dash computer. The interesting thing to me is I had my fuel light turn on for a few miles and then off for more than a few miles while I rode home. It turned on again when I pulled into my driveway so I figured I'd be good for a little while. I got a case of proGAStination. The good news is that I now know what my bike feels like empty and I can coast a good long while before having to push it.

Thanks for letting me lurk and enjoy all this knowledge and hope I can help someone else out.
