I had the privilege thanks to my 30+ years of brotherhood with Danny to meet, work with & laugh with Brian on many occasions during the process of building DirtyBoyz Bar and Grill this past 10 months or so. It didn’t take long to understand why Brian was beloved by so many in his community, the man had a genuine soul !! Breaks my heart for his friends & family. He adored his friends & family and loved riding trails & hunting those steep mountain Whitetails in Kanawha county. I can not think of a better way to honor one of our own then by riding these trails that he roamed on occasion for his own pleasure & peace‼️OCT 24 join us Danny & I in honoring his memory and supporting his family at a very unexpected early departure from this world while hunting in the same woods we will be riding for his family. I got a good feeling he will be riding with us spiritually, smiling upon us all while honoring the man, the dad, the grandpa & friend he was to so many. There will be great trails - Appalachian Outlaw Trails - AOT & even better food available to all participants. Final details are being work out.
One Last Ride‼️

A little chili, a little live music, a little friendly competition and a whole lot of community. 🌶️

Yesterday, Main Street Clendenin came alive for Chili’N on the Elk, bringing folks together for a day of food, music, vendors and fun along the Elk River.

Days like this are what make the Kanawha Valley feel like home. ❤️
