Hello all, Troy aka knoxxy98 here. I picked up a pretty well setup 2013 a couple weeks ago and have already put on about 1500 miles with some gravel and dirt. I live in extreme NE Iowa (near Decorah) in the region known as the Driftless, which was missed by glacial drift for the last 100 million years or so resulting in it having deep valleys and lots of elevation changes available. LOTS and LOTS of interesting gravel roads to explore on the S10 along with some level B roads and if you make friends with some of the locals farm lanes and pastures to play in. I am sure I will pick up plenty of knowledge from this group.

'13 Yamaha Super Tenere

Greetings from Illinois,. Nice riding in your area, I try to get there once or twice per year.
Hit me up next time you are in the area. I am always happy to show people around some of the sights of this great riding area (pavement, gravel and dirt as desired).

Steve - Troy is a friend of mine. Still trying to get him to Romney or the annual meet. You will meet him eventually.
