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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Mad Max at Stave Lake

North

Husqvarna
AA Class
I couldn't ride today until after 12:00 noon, so I went out for a ride on the 610 to Stave Lake just see what it was like. Stave lake is 35mins out-side of Greater Vancouver. It can be a nut house on the weekends. The lake is fair sized. The picture is just of one small arm of the lake and there were hundreds of people on the mud flats.

It's been compared to a Mad Max movie. The place has it's share of stolen burnt out cars. People camp over and party. Some party too much. Somebody(s) gets hurt.:(

The mud flats are real zoo. There was even a boat stuck in one of the little bays in the mud flats.

I stayed away from the mud bogs. I saw one guy a medium sized ATV stuck in the mud. The wheels were covered. Another ATV was trying to pull him out, but couldn't.

Other ATV were ripping on the road making so much dust it was like driving in a white out. Not to mention, some guys riding with no helmets or shirts. But who cares when you have drugs and beer. And lets not forget the kids that are out riding in all of this too.


Oh yea, speaking of Mad Max. The guy on the driver side of the jeep in the picture. Was riding on the running board and has a Mohawk. He looked like he just came off of the movie set of Mad Max... too funny.

Wow, i cant get away from that place...i was recently into 4x4's and that place is redneck central, an embarrassment to the sport... Glad you didnt get run over. :D
 
Whenever I venture into those areas I always leave feeling a little sad and at the same time surprised that the redneck population is still growing.

lol :D
 
The funnest thing was the guy on the ATV that was stuck in the mud. He had bib-overalls on with no shirt. Not to make fun of the guy, but he must of been 450 lbs. He was one huge guy.

He was still on his ATV when the other ATV was tying to pull his out.:eek: I was going to stop to help, and say that maybe you should get off the ATV. But I don't think it would of ended well.:D
