Hi, we do like it here for sure,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, however, we would really like to see some controls on the drinking and driving. The erratic behavior by the drunks is a bit unnerving. I have found in a dangerous message, not to be on a multi modal path after the end of happy hours, had two close encounters by guys who seemed to be loaded. However, a lot of the drivers are very courteous and we wish it would get contagious. Riding a bike is good for your body low impact exercise but being driven off of a path and being nearly sideswiped is a real item. One cart with two occupants, overcame me, I always get over as much as possible, so the passenger used his hand to swat my rear view mirror. (We drive bikes and a cart also) Drinking is a major problem here and making the almighty dollar is more important than some kind of controls. We have been here one year now, I have never seen anyone get a ticket on the multi modal paths. Golfers will overcome us and pass us by at some incredible speeds while we are going 19 to 20 mph. Yes we are considering the safety seriously and may soon look elsewhere. Other than that, we think it is great.
