HOWEVER
if I'm behind you, in a golf cart, and the speed limit is 20, and I'm going at a reasonable pace of 16-18mph, then please let me pass you. You were going only around 9mph when I got close. I went to pass you and instead of letting me, you sped up to over 12mph. That meant it would take me a lot longer to pass you, and that's unsafe since it's a 2-way multi-modal and only enough room on it for 2 golf carts passing each other - not 2 golf carts and a bicycle.
It wouldn't have been TOO bad, if it was just as far as the stop sign.
But you went all the way from Buena Vista on the Camino Real path, all the way to Paige Place, refusing to allow me to pass you while you continued to speed up and slow down - almost as if you were daring me to go fast enough to succeed safely (which was not possible). You also rode your bike RIGHT THROUGH those stop signs. Every single one of them. On one, you didn't even slow down. You were going 12 mph right through it. That was the entry to one of the villages near the Savannah center.
Don't do that, guy. And wear a helmet if you value your safety because one of these days, the person behind you won't be me. It'll be someone who doesn't give a damn about anyone but his own convenience.

Well, well, well, and people thought that it was only the golfers that acted like they were entitled! I'll bet this 'biker' hangs out in the passing lane on the highway doing exactly the speed limit too....ha, we know their type
tough to have been stuck behind such a selfish jerk....but, hey they all wear funky colored outfits (that in a lot of neighborhoods up north you'd get the sh*t kicked out of you for wearing) and those tight fitting shorts help them sing those high notes on karaoke night...so what did ya expect anyway
I wonder if this very same thing was happening back in the Roman days when chariots encountered walkers on those Roman Roads?
Could this have also been happening when the automobile first came out and encountered slower traveling horse drawn buggies?
you see where I'm going with this....
this has been going on forever... I'll bet that there's some DNA identifier that we could test for at birth...and if you had it we could send you to behavioral modification classes....
I'm not at the point to say that we prohibit any couple where both sexes carry that DNA marker from marrying or procreating … but let's not take anything off the table just yet until we learn more
