I think it very nice for people to post travel times. Those who are passing your golf cart, if you are running at the regular speed of 19 or 20 miles an hour are breaking the law, not that the law matters much anymore.

Get the VillagesGPS for $7 and deduct 25% on the travel time. The free village app is no good compared to the private app.

Chitty Chatty to Brownwood
 
We live in Chitty Chatty, right next to Bradford. We go over the Chitty Chatty bridge to Morse to Hillsboro Trail, to Buena Vista, to Paddock Square. About 20 minutes & a nice ride.
We’ll probably also go over the Brownwood bridge too. It’s a little longer, but it’s a beautiful ride & fun to see the development going on. Very cool!😎

I have found 5 mph as average speed is pretty close. 5 miles away equals 25 minutes by golf cart

Fair warning: I WILL be passing the guy going 5 mph. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

We took the trip from the start of the path in Brownwood all the way through and around back over the Chitty Chatty bridge to Belle Glade restaurant was 45 minutes.

From Brownwood Bridge - around the loop and back to Brownwood is one hour. Not going fast, just 15 -20.

Watch Things Go South at The Villages with Jerry and Linda on You Tube. They took the trip by golf cart so you can see the area and I think it was about a 25 minute drive

Is driving along Hillsborough in a golf cart really a "nice ride"?

Wow! I knew that The Villages was longer from north to south than the City of Chicago, but the answers to OP’s question suggests that would take almost 90 minutes to get from Bradford to Spanish Springs. Distance-wise that would be close to the distance from Hammond, Indiana to Evanston. Needless to say, that’s a trip that won’t be on my schedule!

I did not know that The Villages is longer from north to south than the City of Chicago. Are you a former Chicago area resident? Hammond, Indiana to Evanston -- that commute would be brutal. And I think driving from my home in Schaumburg to my office in Northbrook is not the best (but I've been working from home again since mid-October).
