In Richmond there are two access entry points to the walking paths, off the MM path. Both only have single poles with small signage on each… confusing.

Are we still allowed to say "Ladies and Gentlemen" here?

That'll upset the folks that check the box 'not sure'.

As the wife of a Polish man for almost 46 years I find this comment thread hilarious. Thanks all for the chuckles!

Check out The Village of Richmond… several “single posts” separating MM from the walking paths.

I was just stating what I heard was the reason that the path along Megisson, passing Newell, Lake Denham and down to Dabney, does not allow golf carts. I think they said it was a Leesburg thing and that Leesburg considered the paths as sidewalks. All of this, of course, is speculation. But I definitely don't like that I have to go onto Megisson from the Sawgrass area when there is a perfectly large enough path that could be multi-modal.

I will concede though, that based on threads about the danger of carts and bikes mixing up on the paths, it makes sense the Villages may be changing strategy.

"Three poles on a path"........that sounds like the beginning of an ethnic joke about Polish people.
