Re: BIKES AND MORE BIKES
 

I've also noticed in my village how golf carts ,likewise, often go sailing right through stop signs.

Re: BIKES AND MORE BIKES
 

Russ,
I totally agree with Travel. I have lived in the villages for 4 years. During the high season I just put my bike away. It is just two dangerous. I have seen many terrible accidents involving bikes and golf carts or bikes and cars.
I will ride a short distance early in the morning or late at night, once the snowbirds are gone. I am not being negative or making a broad statement. I am just stating the reality of what I find in my area. I am a bike rider who has lived in this area for a much longer time than a preview visit.

And yes rshoffer, many golf carts go sailing by stop signs.

They don't report many of the the golf cart ot bike accidents in the Sun newspaper.

Yes Russ , the area you were in on your preview visit would be one of the best for not much traffic. I live between all shops, restaurants, and Doctors offices on 466.(including the new Walmart) on one side and Lake Sumter Town Center on the other side. I like the location for convience but there is alot of golf cart traffic and car traffic.

As I said before, this development is very big. That means some places have alot more traffic. The busiest months are Jan. Feb. and March.

But I still love it here.
