It is not even mandatory that your golf cart has insurance - Yes, I know the golf cart cannot go on a lot of roads that bikes can ride on - but they are motorized and there are a lot of places a golf cart can hit a person, another cart, or a car.
Hey, all you well wishers

keep that kind of attitude coming and you'll be getting more of your neighbors to get out on the bikes and attract more new residents who love it too.
That means more room on the paths for carts and on the roads for cars .

TV hosted a nationwide event last year for tandem bikes that drew over 200 people to the hotel.

What a great pitch
