There are some that only care about themselves. Many do give plenty of space to walkers and bikers.

As a bike rider I try to be unusually patient with bikers on the MMP’s. Today was a real test of my patients. I drove my cart from our home north of 466 to Belle Glade, a cart ride that takes 35 minutes on a hot summer day with little traffic on the MMP. Today it took almost an hour and 5 minutes. Granted, it was a beautiful day during busy season, however, I have never encountered sooooooo many bike riders. It seemed like I was stuck behind a bike for almost the entire ride. Every time I was able to safely pass a bike I almost immediately came up on another. I wish I counted how many I had to pass, my best guess would be close to 20. It really does test ones patients, especially when you are the last of several carts stuck behind a rider. Next time someone asks how long it takes to get to Belle Glade via golf cart, I will have to say between 35 and 65 minutes, depending on bike traffic.

A lot of golfers are just plain AHOLES...Combine this with a lot of them being from NY/NJ and you get AHOLE squared.

I have an e-bike and don't know of any that go 25 mph, 20 is the max.

Isn't that wonderful that there are so many people out exercising on their bikes!
So you are one of those grouchy old men who have no patients for someone enjoying life. Get up earlier and leave your home sooner so you are not frustrated when you come upon a bike rider. Look on the bright side, you live in a community where people enjoy exercise outside and that is why they are here! They are doing it right down in the southern villages with the separate bike and walking trails and the carts are in the street where they belong.

I have a few bicycles, one is an ebike that provides power assist up to 28 mph then cuts out at speeds above 28 mph. On a recent organized bike ride I was doing 31 mph on 44A. Your bike may be a throttle bike that doesn’t require pedaling. My bike requires pedaling to have any assist. I had to provide maximum pedaling at a cadence of 95 rpm to attain those high speeds. On another point, all the people who want all the bike riders off the roads and onto the multimodal paths have no idea how crowded these paths would become! Bicycling is enjoying explosive growth and the number of riders continues to increase.

My wife has almost been hit by bicycles several times when out walking. Never had an issue with a golf cart.

Me? I rarely, if ever walk on the MMPs, so I can't comment on personal experience.

But when driving my golf cart, I've yet to have a problem with either bikers or pedestrians...

And cyclists are angels... We GET it...

Yet.:icon_wink:

Yep, just like golf cart speed limited.

Well, they both got them… :)

I did not say they were, but the function the same way. I can have opinion just like you with you big illegal horn.

No, probably forever. Yes, people will do stupid things. I've been cut off on the roundabouts, several times. I simply keep an eye out for that.

I don't "lose my proverbial sh*t" every time it happens...

I saw a Prius, come out of the MMP onto Pinellas a few months ago. How the hell she got ON the MMP escapes me! My buddy and I (coming home from golf) gave a collective "WTF?" and then started laughing at the absurdity of it all...

I simple shake my head, laugh at the idiots, and get on with my life...

The cart people....with the cyclops headlight that blinds everyone.. or god forbid if you get behind the large man who can barely fit behind the wheel, knee showing out the side -- smoking a cigar to boot and the 1976 golf cart which hasn't had a tune up since the carter admin. which smells like raw fuel to high heaven. The lady folks need to skip the bakery isle too - wow how did they manage to eat themselves into a better parking space then the rest of us?? Get behind that and let me know how it goes.

The bicycle guys ... over 65 in tight spandex with multiple supporting names platered on them like they really are in the olympics ..big ole tummy and ortho hose and they spit at every turn from drinking colt45 from a can -- yeah that's no picnic being behind them either.

:duck:

Lighten up.. we won't be here forever!
