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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
what that in the background??
Don't know how I still have my licence sometimes...

Well, interesting day with the guys on the ride.
We originally planned about 120-130km of primo track & trails. Unfortunately we only got about 20 km into it when one guy had an endo down a steep hill in bush beside the trail.
He suffered a broken pelvis & had to be airlifted from the scene.
Roughly 10 of the 21 guys haven't met before this ride but all pitched in as a perfect team to get our man down to level ground for the chopper to which him to safety.
Neil was great through it all, never complained about the pain, indeed he was even apologising for shortening our ride!! (They breed them tough down under)!!
It did take a while & there was even some good natured stirring while kept his mind busy. (one clown even chanced a happy snap with the flight crews helmet on while their backs were turned)
I've been to the hospital and the pelvis is all that is broken and he should be ok in a couple of months.
So proud that everyone teamed up so well, and happy that things went as well as they did.
David.
