Every winter the westerlies drive a few pelicans into the Tucson area. I haven't met any of them, though...They get shipped back to California.

Quite a few. I've been to a timing belt party and a couple fun runs... i knew mikeCT and theChris before they joined the board, and have become pretty good friends with bluebullet and mike944. I even bought a Volvo from yellowline. Besides them, I have met a good number of pelicans from both coasts - CT944, singpilot, theCooler, rammstein... and probably about 20 others...

I've met most of the ones in the DC area. From afar I've met Jordi, LeeH, Don Davis, a few other AZ Pelicans, in CA Nostatic, Don Plumley, met a few from the BMW bike section here, met Souk and probably a few others I'm forgetting.

Likely about the same as you Jay, 20-30 Some locals who I met through Pelican. All sharing the enthusiasm that brings us back day after day. All good guys.
Visited Gogar, for the second year, this past weekend. I highly recommend it.

About 5. Every single one has been awesome. Kinda worried because of my age I wouldn't be as welcome as others. Thankfully this isn't the case.

Wow, great question. I would say maybe 20 or so. I haven't had the time to talk to all of them in person nearly enough. I am one of the lucky few that has had Grady Clay in his garage. Grady and I sat and talked at length one Sunday. Unfortunately, my lovely significant other had different plans for me that day. I hope to spend more time with all of the Colorado and near Pelicans as it warms up.

I also hope to not have to bail on anymore fun runs, to get to a cell phone friendly place to call 911 due to being on scene during a motorcyle accident......yeah, that day wasn't too much fun.

About 2 dozen. Some I never would have guessed I'd meet, but they just happened to spot one of our cars and introduce themselves. I only knew about 5 before actually joining the board a few years back.
