For several years my son and I have occaisionally ridden from Sansom Park south thru the various parks, the Stockyards, and finally the Trinity Trail to I-20 and return. Nice ride at about 20 miles with lots of varied urban (but low auto traffic) scenery. We have parked at Samson Park w/o incident or fear.
Recently we have;
a) pulled up as the police were "clearing the park", hearing gunfire("they just shoot up in the air") as an amused policeman told us that we 'didn't belong there'. We agreed.
b) chased away from the apartments' parking lots (residents only, I understand)
c) told that the TCC lot north of 820 is "for student use" (I pay taxes for that, I don't understand)
Now I'm looking for someplace else to park in that area. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, did you find an alternative.
