Seeing Trimix in his suit and tie doing some flatland made me wonder.
What careers have us "punk kids that ride bikes" gotten into?
Me, I design commercial buildings for a living.
Anyone else?

You'd never guess what I do for a living...
aw, shucks. I'm too easy. Still selling stuff.
I am the top salesman, and sales manager of our families commercial printing company in Cincinnati. My wife and I also did real estate (in our spare time) until about three years ago when we built our dream home out in the country. I sell all kinds of stuff on ebay too...

Mostly, I spend time with my kids on the farm, riding quads, horses, and shooting or fishing.
Lately though I've been playing a lot of paintball in my backyard...
Oh, and when you ride a bike that looks like this...
jeans and a t-shirt just don't seem to cut it!

The scene in Texas is great. Austin is hot, although I haven't been there to ride. Dallas has 6 parks I can think of off the top of my head.
Wood parks:
Kennendale (just south of Arlington, between Dallas and Fort Worth)
Eisenberg's in Plano (suburb of Dallas)- Has a foam pit. :D
I don't know the name, but there is one in Carrollton (suburb of Dallas)
Alliance Skatepark (formerly GPX) in Grand Prairie. They have a mini course and a pro course. The spine on the pro course is sick (I won't try it!). They had the X games qualifier there a few years back.
Concrete Parks:
Allen
Irving
Both are free to ride. Allen is much better, over 30,00 square feet. All the parks are within 30 minutes of my house except Kennendale, that's a little bit further.
Should be worth a road trip!
I ride park mostly, and mess around on the street in front of the house a little. I'm not very good, but I enjoy it. I wont' be able to do Phoenix, but let me know if you decide to come down to Texas.
