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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Thanks for posting. It was a great ride! Now that I've recovered, next time on Schofield Pass, the TE310R, with LOW tire pressure! Oh, and "I" could lose 20 pounds and spend the year before working out!!

Ya, but I could only see you benefiting on the TE310 for about 2% of the ride and regretting taking it for the other 98% of the time. The TE630 was perfect for 98% of the ride and a bit of a hand full on only 2%. I think you brought the perfect bike for the ride! Here you are now, right in front, just after surviving one of those 2% sections.

Quite impressed how well she handles the dirt roads and at the same time doesnt mind to do days of 70-80mph on the highway. Smooth, 50-70mpg and dead reliable since the recall.
Back home now. Stayed one day longer than planned in Big Bend and had to ride the 600 miles back home in one day. Terra did it just fine and my bum is not too sore.

Hope you made it across to Mt. Barrow, the crosscut to Ringarooma via Mt. Victoria Plains and Ralph's Falls, Mt. William National Park and those blinding white beaches around Musselroe Bay and Petal Point.
Just booked the boat last week for another 2 weeks in March, tenting around some more of the North of the island. Can't wait :-)
Enjoy !!

Based out of Branxholme for several days, also Bicheno and Miena.
Spent quite a few evenings here at the Imperial Hotel in Branxholm. New publican (Bill bought the place 5 days before we arrived) is bike friendly and a thoroughly nice guy

Captains Creek is notorious for that...and after all the rain we've had out east last night, no surprise. Might've seen some water at Wombelano Falls then!
How was that hill on Pauls Ln.? Still remember ploughing down that thing sideways on the Strom with a mounting pile of mud building ahead of me
