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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

nz is alright . guns and petrol cost too much . and the government needs to stand up to the maoris but other than that its pretty fkn choice . nothin in the wild that can harm you at all .
skippers canyon is pretty epic . mean mountain bike track down the other side of it
 
"the government needs to stand up to the maoris" .This is a Husky site, not bs political crap.
I'm a New Zealander, and the pics I've seen in the above posts stir the wanderlust.
Funnily enough, I met a bloke who recognized me from 1986..:oldman:. I was on my F1 750 Ducati and he remembered! Anyway, we're in the early stages of planning a round trip of Aussie; buy a couple of F800GS BMs over there, set up and do it..
Did some of the back country South Island rides (NZ) a year ago... last I spoke to Danny (ex Zipty), said I should put in a report. I'll get around to it maybe.. Cheers Guys.
