Some time ago I made a lengthy trip in my cart with my GPS. I averaged 16 MPH. My cart has not been modified so I did not exceed 20 MPH.

To determine distances you might try Google Earth. Go to "Tools" and select "Ruler" and you can measure distances. Remember, distances measured are "as the crow flies". The distance from CR42, northern point, to CR44, southern point, is about 8 miles as the crow flies.

If you are unfamiliar with Google Earth (a free program) PM me and I will try to help you install and use it. On the other hand, Google " Google Earth" and you can find out a lot about it.

Hope this helps.

BTW, actual distance via Buena Vista Blvd. would be about 12 miles by car and a little farther by cart.
