So, in other words, it's NOT legal, but "people do it all the time"? Like most crimes, you might not get caught? If you are caught, you may or not be cited depending on the officer? I'd say that's about the same as Vegas odds in blackjack :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Perhaps the lament is over the lack of (yama)moto, (Manny)moto or (quasi)moto paths. :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl: Even better---a first post, might as well start the developer bashing early, for a perceived lack of something that he doesn't even know the name of.

For a "sage" I would think you would be a bit more understanding of a newbie who is just trying to gain information.

If you don't even know what it is called, how can you gain information???? You did realize this was a first-time poster taking a shot at the developer?

Thanks for correcting me, as I only visited there for 3 days looking for property in Dabney & Eastport & there were no multi-“modal” paths there. Perhaps I misunderstood our realtor’s pronunciation. However she did keep telling us how it is the friendliest place to live. Guess she hasn’t met you or some others on these forums. Some people just like to ASSume others have an agenda which doesn’t exist. I have no clue who the developers are good or bad.

Thank you. Some people just look to find sinister plots I guess. It’s a sad way to view the world & people in it. All this because of one word moto vs modal. Can’t imagine if I mistakenly used there in stead of their. :D

It's 100% legal to do so. You're going on a small patch of grass from the health center beside the Brownwood hotel and then driving on a small patch of grass across the front of Freedom Plaza. You may see "NE 41st view" on a map but it's not really a road of any sort, more like an unopened road allowance.

Basically just follow the well worn golf cart tracks.

Excellent venue for marketing. I enjoyed the YouTube video as well. Keep up the good work.

Not quite.

Here is YOUR very first post:

"I wish there were multi moto paths in the south. Seems they’ve been abandoned to save $$ at the risk of lives"

"Moto" was just a bonus. For someone who claims that "they don't even know who the developer is", that post certainly attempts to attribute to them profit over safety. So, yes, I agree, that IS a sad way to "view the world and the people in it"

You see, you can't have it both ways---someone on this site will call you out on it.

The days of nature joy ride style multimodal paths for golf carts like up north of Warm Springs Road area as seen on Gold Wingnut's maps seem to be void now. Sure lots of walking paths but as far as I can see on the map key "blue" lines either hug the main roads or disappear into diamond lanes.

Not my kind of joy ride in a cart like waaaay up north or the Marsh Bend Trail path. Diamond lanes are dangerous but who would agree with that on totv where its all about picking at others.

"They don't build 'em like they used to."
There are plenty of diamond lanes north of 44. And there are plenty of MMP's south of 44. They certainly did "build 'em like they used to".

The difference is, and it is a great improvement, walkers and riders have plenty of paths to enjoy without dodging impatient cart drivers. I sold my bike when I lived north of 44. Now that I live south, I wish I had held on to it.

Yes, the southern area has lots of wonderful walking/biking paths where golf carts are forbidden.

We live north of Route 44 but we never ride our bikes anywhere near us. When we want to ride our bikes, we take them south of 44 and park our car at a nice rec center like Homestead or Franklin. Then we go for a long (for us) bike ride and then hop in the pool afterwards.

Will there be nightly entertainment at Eastport? I would assume so, but haven't seen it confirmed yet.
