See, there is a solution for every problem.
We live in the southern area. Be that as it may, no one should feel like they have to do that in order to ride their bike in a community where they pay dearly to maintain MULTI modal paths. Those paths are intended for all of us, not just carts. If that is your preference then go for it, but riding out our door and directly onto a path is what attracted us to the Villages and was something that was stressed to us when we mentioned we were cyclists, miles and miles of paths right out our front door.
