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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

61st ISDE Italy San Pellegrino Terme

Husky r&d swede team capt Thomas G on the 86 aircooled 510, Passeri with his crazy body english style, tullio railing, the east german MZs forward left kickers and enclosed chains, Jawa CZs Betas, TMs, Hon, Yam, Kramit. i saw at least 1 skunk helmet on a honda for one.
 
PS all those Italians were probably riding this bergamo zone and know the place like the back of their hand.....hometown advantage, Davide on the TM
 
Good one Norm!!! I know that many of the teams had that NASCAR racing logic-----If you don't get caught it ain't cheatin'. (remember the France bike swap in the forest debacle) I really want to know where we can access records for ISDE numbers, I'm such a history freak, I want to ID those guys.
Fact is most of the top tier Italian offroaders come from that local Bergamo zone (with exceptions of course) sort of like the US MX scene back in the days of the (El) Cajon Zone.

I remember a local club did an enduro in an area that never has events....but it is an area that I was riding like every weekend. I was a 250B class guy and smoked the class and had test times way up in the A class----we rode trails that I knew like my own driveway. ANd Im sure even the non local team guys were there all year riding those roads, hills and trails

Tullio and the rest of the Trophy team and the Juniors (Davide and Team) were slick operators for sure, not to discount the talent level, which was top tier anyway.....but for sure they were not going lose barring a catastrophe.
 
Way Cool, also I just had a reminder of a well jetted 2 stroke sounds like. Thanks for finding and posting it.:D
