There are things going on nearby of which we have no ken. Car shows, club meets, events, etc. I wonder how many people don't even know that GFC exists? I understand that some people have no interest in club activities, but others just don't know.
I had no idea about the 30th Fiero anniversary, for example. No one mentioned it to me. Apparently, they figured I knew. At the time of the 25th, I hadn't encountered any other Fiero people, but people I knew were at the 30th.
Sometimes, you stumble on things by accident. I don't understand the reasoning of not participating in a club whose existence is centered on appreciating your car. I have my Fiero to enjoy it.
