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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

This is the Baja we know.

Love the video but hate the music. We all love the sound of the bikes, but music tastes are to peticular to make the vid better by adding it. I know, you didn't do it, just sayin.
 
Oh man, I've said it before and I'll say it again. I didn't get to experience anything like that when I visited. I swear one of these days, I'm gonna hook up with you robertaccio, and ride some of that single track. That looks like KILLER 165 country!


Music wasn't to bad. It really sucks when they edit out the bike completely. At least you could still here some of the bike!!
 
Is it just me or does it seem to others as well that a lot of riding footage that is uploaded either on YT or on this case Vimeo appears to have been sped up?
 
First off, the guy riding has skills. Second, whoever that was singing just slaughtered a good mid 80's song from The Cure...
 
Wow that is some great riding.......That dude didn't even have a steering damper... I'm impressed.... I couldn't help but notice all those KTMs .... I know those are great rock bikes but I had to wonder how many Huskys were out there ???
 
mine and maybe 2 other Huskys on this ride . most of our small crew no longer use steering dampers, most of our core crew ride Katos but we have a couple of Hondas (as you see) among us as well, and even the Height challenged French guy Cy has gone to KTM from this well set up YZ250 to a 200XC. If I still rode the H&Hs I would have a damper. plush suspension valving keeps all working well and fatigue free. This was the '11 version (shhh ride) so I felt ok to post ( I may have some of this previously posted). Just wanted to share with some that have not seen it.
PS we all could not claim completion of all the entire A loops on this one, I was later butt kicked with MS18 near the 65 mile mark in a rocky muddy stream bed and we skipped that section but jumped back on the trail to finish back to home camp- no prize in 2011.
In the 2012 version of this ride on my TE310 I was still fresh at the finish all A loops completed, amazing how much less energy it takes to ride the 310, got the finisher prize!! and local fun respect rights as a finisher . The finish all A loops percentage was higher this year but the rider skill level was OA higher, the organizers scared alot of folks away from previous years carnage inflicted.
 
That looks real cool.... I'm not much of rock rider living where I do... But I'd bet from the looks of it that it can destroy a lot of bikes...:notworthy:
