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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
Haha I was gonna say ya lookin a little skittish n uncomfortable in those rocks!!! Nah jus shittin ya mate good work ya famous!Yep, almost looks like I can ride eh?
You deserve it Coastie! Your dedication to the series got you the win. Now that we're in the same class, I can't wait to see ya at the Gorman race.
T-Coastie, congrats on the win! The Hilltoppers used to run 2 classic events every year down in Rosarito Beach, MX. A 100 miler in the hills east of the toll road in the spring of the year and a 2 hour beach race every October just like the ones in Europe. I raced both of those events practically every year from the early 1980's up until the early '90's when they quit doing them. Jeez, I long for the good old days again...
