I ride the roads in the villages while others are on the multi-modal paths.I don't know what kind of rider you are but I find the roads are more "open " to riding at your own speed.The paths have golf cars ,roller bladers,& walkers that tend to slow me down! Ther are also biking clubs for people of all levels from slow riders to those that average 20 mph.Here's a link to one of my rides in the villages:: http://connect.garmin.com/activity/80837560
