I’m trying to convince my family member to get something like that. When he bought the place, it came with a petrol powered golf cart, a riding lawnmower, and a small pontoon boat with a two-stroke engine.

The rules are at least a little better than Peachtree. Carts are supposed to be governed to 15 MPH (24 km/h) which makes the speed more compatible with cycling. I was easily able to keep up with them on my Brompton. Nobody is supposed to be driving one without a drivers’ licence, which would require them to be at least 16 years old here, but there were definitely a few 13-15 year olds driving around. There are no police at all on the island.
Comparing population density, the island is fairly wooded and is all single family summer homes with septic systems. There are about 150 homes on 120 acres. Nobody stays over the winter. The only businesses are the bar (a converted cottage) and the ferry (no building, just a dock and a parking lot for golf carts.) There’s also a pavilion and a childrens’ playground.

Also, the weather was perfect, 26 °C and clear.

Are you doing a cycling
Are you doing a cycling workout, or a resistance workout? I find that creatine really helps with recovery (and gains) from the latter. Just be sure to stay hydrated.

“A man has identified an accident blackspot in Northern Ireland. He has sent the Department of Infrastructure a selection of clips showing vehicles crashing in the same place over the period of a month.”
You really have to watch the video though.
Found the location! Really hard to understand the crashes unless someone is pouring oil on the road when it’s wet. I suppose there’s always a remote chance that the drivers are not seeing the “SLOW” sign right before the gentle bend, though.

That seems like a lot of grams of carbs for a five year old, although many parents seem to let them drink that much in soda regularly.
