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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Single track?

Takes the fun out of it if it gets too dangerous ....

No quads here really :0 ) ... Just small bikes or slow trucks on roads and trails ... Double tracks \ mountains roads are good as ST as most are gnarly and no traffic really ... They'll beat out a line on the easiest part of the road ... I'll just go off this beaten line and hit the gnarly stuff and have ~0 chance of disturbing anyone, if I meet anyone...

Your stuff is riding in the jungle... Who could top that for single trail. LOL

I turn 53 in a couple weeks and have to admit, I'm really at that point too. I have been avoiding some of our really tight rocky technical trails more now.
Big problem I have is that my mind remembers how I'm suppose to ride, but my body just doesn't follow along as quick as it once did.......resulting in more little mistakes. And, I don't bounce back from results of some of those mistakes as quick now either.

Great points and I mirror them emotions. After two decades of seeking the gnar, I now seek more flowing tight stuff and semi-secret sauce me and a couple close buds can rip. My iron-man death-proof days are over. Looking at maybe a couple more years of this then it's out of the saddle and on the porch.

And that means someone's getting a smokin' deal on a two-bike package!
 
I hit some stuff yesterday that used to be great... but with all the rain we've been getting, it looked more like the jungle's of Malaysia... I've got video, but mostly it's of me getting face-slapped, crashing & doing a lot of cussing.

Fogey......:p

My bike IS my porch.
 
IMHO nothing doable except on a bike is S/T. (even if it is a little wide) ,older pics out on the 06 TE450

I resemble that remark.

Lemme see ya down some beers when it's movin', w/o spillage.

You'd be unlikely to see me downing beers anywhere (though, I've oft been seen slurping on some smoothies or milkshakes) . But that's another reason I often don't carry my water in a hydration system. I get a chance to stop, relax and take a sip out my water bottle.

More for me! I kid. I rarely go over two beers then it's lights out and a headache tomorrow...

I used to carry canteens, but, I got no rump so they kept sliding down...so camelback it is!

Can you imagine the awsome goat trails he has hidden in the bush over there no one's hittin' ??!!

I can't find the end either and mostly just feet hitting the ST here ... I did get to another point today where I saw an island (Negros) that is on the opposite side(east) of island from the side (west) I live on ... I'm starting to carry a compass with me now to help sort of my direction of travel ...

There are always multiple ST places to venture off the main road as shown here ... I'm liking the DBL track here ... but it ain't ST ...
