Episode 341 Jack Stottlemire: "Life-Changing Modifications: Helping Heroes Ride Again"

ATV-TALK A Motorsport Podcast

Jack Stottlemire, a retired military war hero, faced major mobility challenges after years of combat and physical sacrifice. Looking for a way to manage his PTSD and reconnect with his passion, Jack turned his personal workshop into more than just a space for metalwork and knife-making—it became a hub for innovation.

With countless surgeries behind him, Jack began adapting mechanical and hydraulic components to keep himself riding motorcycles. What started as a personal mission quickly evolved into something greater: developing adaptive riding solutions for fellow veterans and wounded warriors. From hydraulic shifters to stabilization systems, Jack’s work offers a path back to the open road—on two, three, or even four wheels.

Joined by a small team of veterans, Jack’s innovations have gained attention across the adaptive riding community. His collaboration with Jason and Ian from Team Blind led to new ATV applications, expanding the reach and accessibility of these life-changing modifications.

Jack’s story is one of resilience, purpose, and giving back. Help us spread the word—share this episode with your family and friends, hit the like button, and subscribe to ATV-TALK to support stories that matter.
