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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I'm still in the saddle, but getting older and more out of shape all the time. The WR300 is starting to get a little annoying to ride, mostly because I hardly get any practice riding it anymore. Last time I was on the trails with it was the weekend of the 4th of July. I found the bike to be a bit too perky off the bottom, for me last weekend....but still managed to put in some crash-free miles on it and the lovely rain soaked high desert. I ordered a throttle tamer for the bike as soon as I got home from my ride. I still have the little 125, but it's as tall or taller than the 300. I wonder how long it will be before I give in and buy a Beta Xtrainer, so I can reach the ground and give the electric start button a prod instead of a kickstarter.

Color matched bike to the local flora.

Lovely dirt and weather on a winter's day, with a break in the clouds, one of many for the hours that I was out there.
