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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Cactus spines through handguards

Get back at the cactus, eat the red fruit when they bloom On the prickly pear cactus, really good. Not the skin, inside, be careful the stuff stains. I carry a pocket knife just for them.

Is this stuff still going on? like needle service at the pits & combs around the neck or was that the good old days? I know there is all kinds of cacti out there but was it worse years ago or havs everyone learned to handle it better?

good old days of Oct09 AMA Nat Enduro Wickenburg Az. was my experience with checkpoint needle pickers and Afro combs.
As well as unexpected super hi temps in the hi 90s that ruined me into a near heat stroke DNF before the last loop. (I hate quitting, but this one was a real health concern)
 
I stuck a long comb in each boot...with a string tied to it hanging out of my boot....cholla jumped on me...boom fling it off and keep going....Casey with BITD was cruel in some races running you right thru huge Cholla fields...
