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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Why are Canadians so nice?

To add to this we ran into a big group of 17 MTB riders on our favorite epic trails this last weekend. Instead of the usual nasty looks and stink eye we get from the locals who are pissed we are riding MC trail we get happy faces and lots of good conversation. Sure they are in our country riding our trails but are very nice about it and several were surprised we would ride dirtbikes on the extreme cliffy stuff we were riding and were asking us all about it.

Hahahahaha that's classic. I can't say enough about how Friendly AMERICANS have been on my Mt. Bike trips down to Colorado, Utah and Nevada**************************************** Actually, I recall we all commented on a training trip (road bikes...the pedal variety) how amazing the South Carolina peeps were to bikes. I especially like license plates like New Hampshire..I think...LIve FREE OR DIE :)

One of my grandparents was born in Canada...so I am nice 25% of the time :D

I actually work for Canadians....and I wouldn't generalize them as any nicer than Oregonians.....maybe they are just nice to strangers.
 
When you think of Canada what are the fist three things that come to mind? Bacon, beer and maple syrup..... How can you not be nice when your country is good at those three!! The first two at least****************************************!!
