If I'm going to be hit by an errant driver, I'd rather it be with a golf cart than a 2000 pound car, lol! I see lone cyclists on Buena Vista for example,and think they're really taking their life in their hands. With a group, its a different story. I feel safer in a group on the heavily traveled roadways.

My 23 yr. old son was jogging on the multi modal path the other day and was yelled at by a lady in her golfcart to get off the path. The Villages needs to get the word out again about "Multi-Modal" use of the paths, especially for you snowbirds and newbees.
