When they are passing, I then move to the right so they don’t pass so close to me.

They are NOT golf cart paths! They are multi-modal.

Thank you! They are NOT golf cart paths, they are trails which are to be used for bicycles, walkers, joggers, and carts. And really they are a poorly designed. You have golf carts zooming around at 20-25mph, walkers going 3 mph, and bicycles 12-15 mph, all sharing the same space. There is bound to be conflict, especially when you have the golf cart drivers thinking the trail belongs to them and cyclists don't belong there.
