Unbelievable.
Do you know why bikers stay in the middle of the lane? Because if we ride on the edge, some of the reckless and uncaring golf cart drivers pass so close as to endanger our lives. If any carts get stuck behind me more than 10-15 seconds, I will find a place to pull off the trail if I can to let them pass. I used to ride on the edge of the trail until a few carts drivers almost got me killed. No more. We pay the same Association fees as you.
