He left this world on Sunday, January 28, 2024, at the age of 83.\nFrank (as his family and friends called him) was born at home to his loving parents, Nina and James Glover. Soon enough, he was gifted with two wonderful younger sisters, Donna and Sherry.\nEspecially in his later years, Frank enjoyed telling the story about the time he and his family moved from McAllister, Oklahoma, to Greenville, Texas. They came by train when he was about 5 years old. He said he was more than disappointed as they crossed the Red River when he did not see cowboys riding horses everywhere. He was very upset that Texas did not live up to his wild west expectations. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u2026 Frank could never sit still. Ever. Over the years, he enjoyed playing golf and running. He then took up arrowhead and fossil hunting all around Texas. This eventually phased into his love of hiking mountains at Big Bend National and State Parks, the Guadalupe Mountains, crossing the Grand Canyon multiple times, and hiking several 14\u2019ers in Colorado. Once his knees began to give out, Frank purchased his first road bicycle and discovered his love of riding. He participated in three RAGBRAI rides across the state of Iowa, several annual Bike Tour of Colorado rides, and more rides than we could ever count with his friends around the state of Texas. We hope his friends Mohammad, Steve, Russ, Allan, and so many others know how much he enjoyed his times with them. \u2026<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/d\/tx--cedar-hill\/biking\/\">Biking events in Cedar Hill, TX<\/a><\/h2>\n<h4>www.eventbrite.com<\/h4>\n<p>Fort Worth Bike Fest pb\/Trek Bicycle &amp; FWMBA primary image\nFort Worth Bike Fest pb\/Trek Bicycle &amp; FWMBA\nSat, Apr 27 \u2022 9:00 AM\nGateway Park\nFrom $20.00<\/p>\n<p>Coffee &amp; e-Bikes Demo at Sansom Park primary image\nCoffee &amp; e-Bikes Demo at Sansom Park\nSat, Feb 24 \u2022 9:00 AM\nMarion Sansom Park\nFree\nSaddle Up Before The Big Game Ride primary image\nSaddle Up Before The Big Game Ride<\/p>\n<p>Sun, Feb 11 \u2022 9:00 AM\nTrek Bicycle Arlington South\nFree\nTrek Dallas Gravel Rides primary image\nSales end soon<\/p>\n<p>Trek Dallas Gravel Rides\nTuesday \u2022 6:30 PM + 9 more\nTrek Bicycle Dallas Park Cities\nFree\nTrek Bicycle Northshore Thursday Ripper primary image\nTrek Bicycle Northshore Thursday Ripper<\/p>\n<p>Thursday \u2022 6:30 PM + 21 more\nTrek Bicycle Flower Mound\nFree\nBikers In Wonderland: Eat.
