Hi. Been lurking for a few weeks figured I might as well say hi. I'm from Washington (Tri Cities) bought a 2014 ES a few weeks back and loving every minute I'm on it. Here's a pic of the ride up in the Blues the day after I brought it home.

Thank you all for the welcomes. Yeah It's a nice hour ride up to the blues then about 45 minutes of some nice off roading to get to that spot where the pic was taken. I actually live in the desert part of washington. No trees around here, but plenty within an hour or two ride. I haven't done much dirt riding since I was 10 but I plan to do a lot on the tenere. I still need to get a skid plate and crash bars before I do to much more. I eventually want to do the Washington backcountry discovery route.
This is a great forum I read a lot of posts and that helped me decide on the tenere.

Welcome to the forum. You have a nice mix of riding potential from Tri-Cities. The Columbia gorge used to be part of my riding playground. Lots of fun exploring the 'dry side' of the PacNorWet.

Sounds like a plan. Im going to be ordering a skid plate and crash bars from eric after they arrive i plan on exploring that whole area. Some of it seemed a bit sketchy to do without a skid plate. I think best guess ill have the set mid october. Thankfully i have heated grips ::26::

Welcome from the wet-side!

Tons of great information on the forum and an active group in the PNW.

Enjoy the new Tenere!
