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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I never understood the concept of racing 3 or 4 wheelers. They serve a great purpose as utility vehicles, especially up here in Alaska, but there is nothing they can do on a track that a motorcycle can't do better.


Agree the only real non utility fun I have found on them is sand and snow both of which are fun once or twice a year tops. 3 Wheelers are just plain dangerous. Broke my first bone on one (Clavicle)
 
rented a trike once back in the late 80's to go find & check a suspended gas well in muskeg country;
riding through tall grass & hit the but-end of a log that I didn't see.
knocked my foot off the peg and ran over myself, dragged me off into the muck.
trike chugged along happily without me for a minute

I still have the scars on the back of my calves from learning to keep your feet on the pegs of a 3 wheeler. I also learned how to eject when needed.
