Default How many Spyders in the SF Bay Area?

In speaking with other Spyder owners recently we mutually agreed that there is probably a larger concentration of Spyders in the SF Bay area than in any other region in the US. Not sure if this factually true but wanted to start this thread to try and get a tally.

The ones that I already know of are:
Bensf
Orthojoe
redyps
mile2424
z356 (Carmel)
TheKane

There's another white one in the walnut creek area with red brakes, but I've never met the owner

I saw a red one in Union Square about a month ago and a white one in the Peninsula several months ago.

Barring any last-minute problems, I'm picking one up on Thursday from a fellow RL member.

I think I have seen another white with red interior in the Capitola area. I believe it also has white wheels but I am not 100% sure on that. I have only seen it on the freeway going the opposite direction so never up close yet.

A NorCal Spyder rally/BBQ sounds great. Let's do it. I am in Marin.

The diablo region PCA is having it's annual 'wash n shine' event at the Livery in Danville on May 27th. I was planning on attending the event that morning. This could be a potential date/location for us?
