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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

LAMC Tecate Sprint Enduro 5DEC2015

Looks like they are out of order to me.....


Thanks for the article about my dad and uncle.... They were kings of Tecate back then

Could you explain your key times? Sort of not making sense to me, left to right.....

Group A's first start time is first column on left. Each start time thereafter is columns to the right so they would read consecutive from left to right.
Group B first start time is one column over to the right so the first column on the left would be their last loop. Group C's (my group) first start time is the third column over from the left so our start times start from there and move to the right until the last column which then starts again first column on the left.

So when do the results come out. Wanted to check on my Cafe brothers and could only find last year stuff.

Results should have been posted immediately following the race however the race book was inadvertently wisked off in the wrong van. So until it is discovered we're all patiently waiting.
 
Los Ancianos did a bang up job for this event. truth be told its not really my kind of thing.
the first test (loop 1) took me about 1/2 way before I was 1/2 way settled in...then it was over, I crashed 3 times.......not smooth.
Loop 2 was my fave and was tight and had a couple rock sections. L3 was the flat field grass track that was a silt bed after a few folks went through. All Loops were well done and and all were fun....my result will leave alot to be desired I think. give me hardcore gnarley 7 hours of hard terrain (and some pre race rain) and i will be more happy ----for those that did the race lots of L2 and some of L1 and about 75+ miles of that...i saw lots of happy finishers-- but to me this was a no brainer to finish, LAMC great job really super bang up job but please bring back the Larga y Dura you are most famous for, even in my older age I prefer it. I rode super conservative for this one, way inside the envelope.

"Not really my kind of thing", is good for us Rob....expands our minds! :eek:
So loop 1 was very fast Euro enduro test sketchy?
 
Norm my test sequence was 123 123, they had us on schedule by color code and number. I was super fortunate to be the first 50+ in my yellow group which did the tests in numerical order. 1st test had some familiar trails in an area we have ridden before in races and for fun, just going in cold is tough the trail itself is fun and weaves around (you will see H Cam Im sure) I was just spode city in the first test. Oh I need to mention the fortune part. they gave a 3 minute break between the end of the 40s and my start so had clean air until the 2 former ISDE riders behind me caught me up but no worries they were quickly by- so all 6 tests I was basically in clean air (see story about "grass track") for the last 2 tests we lost the guy behind me during the second 1 test. He hit a (@4in dia)branch that most of us avoided that was a cut off under some leafy branches and made a bloody mess of himself. He finished the test (and eventually passed me near the end) but retired the day with his entire chest protector and front of his pants drenched in blood......we moto people are a silly bunch.
 
Kinda hard to tell from the vid but the silt was axle deep. It covered ruts and holes that your front wheel would drop into and try to follow. My last lap was loop2(most technical) which got so shot out by that time I hit some holes so hard that it doubled my forearm over my wrist.

Yep the short courses made mistakes unrecoverable and the twisty turns rutty course made it really easy to make mistakes.
