Hey guys, I currently am living in Canada and am planning on moving down south so I can ride/train throughout the winter (october-april). I have two options I can do and need some of your help with some questions..

Option 1:
My job has shops in Odessa Texas, Houston Texas, and Oklahoma city Oklahoma. I can transfer to one of these shops, but I need to know if there are any decent tracks close to them. I would like to practice every weekend and hopefully some weekdays as well..if these cities are not close to any tracks than it would be useless for me as the whole reason I am moving is to ride..so in that case I would use the second option.

Option 2:
Get a different job somewhere else, could be anywhere in the states. In this case I would need some advice from you guys on some good tracks that are open throughout the winter for practice, and then try my best to find some work close to that track so I can pay the bills. I could care less what kind of job I get (construction, oifield labourer, whatever) as long as I make enough money to scrape by and pay the bills and ride.

So if anyone could give me some direction here that would be a HUGE help and would really mean alot to me! Thanks

Odessa= West Texas= Hell on earth Houston is probably your best bet.

Not sure about the Odessa area or OKC (BQ would be a good source for that) I do know there are some nice tracks around Houston. here is a link that may help you
