Mike, thanks sooo much for your efforts!!!

Here are some additional cart lanes. These lanes are the same type as are on St. Charles.
1. Tamarind Grove Run from St. Charles west to the Tamarind Grove pool. You can see the pool by using the satellite view. Although Tamarind Grove Run continues past the pool, the cart lanes stop at the entrance of the pool.
2. Southern Star Way from St. Charles east to Odessa Circle. Although Southern Star continues into the villa neighborhood, the cart lanes end at Odessa.

Yep, those two segments are there. The only other thing I'd suggest perhaps adding is real short piece of cart path that leads right off of Paradise Dr. into that first parking lot - so people can see where to start from.

Bill :)

Thanks Bill.... Got the short piece in there. I had to find it first....ha ha I've never driven that path myself.

I looked at it on the map - you've got it!!! Thanks!

You ought to take that trip sometime - it's a fun ride!

Bill :)

Refering to the tunnel under Morse near Havana, I noticed that there is a short trail that runs behind Havana to O'Dell from the tunnel. Is that trail section open to all carts or for golfers only?

Skyguy.... I just looked at the tunnel at Havana. It looks, to me, that every Multi-modal path is marked. There is a short piece, from Odell Cir. to the starter shack on Havana-Hemingway that is for golfers only, so I left that one unmarked. On the other side of the tunnel, the path around the back of Havana CC is already marked too. Let me know if I'm missing one somewhere else.

Thanks for the feedback!

Got all of these edits into the system. I marked all streets that Southern Star Way intersects. That whole neighborhood is not marked.

These edits require approval, so it might be a day or two before they are active or appear in Google Maps.

Thanks for the update....

Having a challenge trying to access map
 
I have been on google maps on the computer and I can't seem to find the map of the cart paths. I have put in bike paths in the Villages in the search box but nothing close to the Villages comes up. What am I missing? I want to print up the paths before we head down. Thanks for any help.

Try clicking the following link. It should bring up the map with the trails. (Trails are the Green lines) If it doesn't work, try using a different browser, and if it still doesn't work, you may have a problem with your computer settings or some other problem with it.

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=rt+466...src=6&lci=bike

(Don't try copying the above link to paste in another browser. It's truncated and will not work properly if you try!)

I've tested this link and it works OK!

Go to the google page. type The Villages, Fl into the search box. Then click on the maps option at the top menu of the google page.

Then go to right side of the map. You will see two boxes. The bottom box says "traffic" and has a little down arrow at the bottom. Click on the down arrow and another menu will drop down with the bicycling option. Click on that and "Voila" Memason Magic.

Thank you! Works with the iPad.
 
Works with the iPad if you open Safari, search for Google>Maps>The Villages, FL.
With the Google Map open, select bicycle from the second pull down menu on the top right of the screen.
Lots of customization available, ability to save maps too!


Now, how to create an App for that?
