thank you for giving me permission. I appreciate that.
And you should follow your instincts as well.
Let those e-bikes come up from behind. Good plan.

Many traffic fatalities in the Villages that didn't involve cars? I can think of one or maybe two in the last five years. Can you provide links to a few that I must have missed?

It's not a walking trail, though. I enjoy running/walking on the pathways, always on the left side. I want to be able to see oncoming bicycles. When I run or walk on roadways, I do the same thing. I want to be able to react if a car backing out of a driveway doesn't see me, for instance. The same goes for bikes (not the driveway thing-just in general). I don't want to leave it up to them to watch out for me as they approach from behind. By walking/running on the left side, I can watch bikes as they come toward me and be able to react. I have seen bicyclists looking the other way, at phones, or talking to a buddy, and don't want to rely on these people to avoid me.

You haven't read about the many golf cart crashes and fatalities? Pedestrians on the hazardous Morse Blvd Area? Bikers being sideswiped?

Many golf cart crashes into *cars*? Pedestrians on Morse Blvd Area made dangerous by *cars*? (and no, I haven't heard of any pedestrian fatalities there) Bikers being sideswiped by *cars*?

Of course I have heard of incidents that involved cars hitting a motorcycle, bicycle, golf cart, or pedestrian (though not on Morse). What I haven't heard of is many fatalities where no car was involved at all which is what I thought you were trying to say.
