Once you’ve made the adjustment, grab your beverage of choice (non-alcoholic if you’re a smart cookie), put your foot down, and enjoy the feeling of the wind in what’s left of your hair. The cart will hum a little louder, the landscape will blur a little faster, and you’ll feel a tiny, illegal thrill—like stealing an extra cookie from the jar, but with wheels.
And if you mess it up? No big deal. Just undo what you did, and your cart will go back to its gentle, obedient self. After all, it’s just a golf cart. But for a few minutes, it felt like a rocket-powered cooler on wheels. And that’s a beautiful thing.
