How did Jerry find his calling?
Jerry has paraplegia, he is one of less than 2% of paraplegics who can walk—a walking paraplegic.
“I completely retrained my body and mind to walk after being paralyzed,” Jerry explains. His incredible journey began after a life-changing injury in 2014 when a tractor fell on him at a construction site.
“I heard a lot about what I could no longer do during recovery,” Jerry recalls. “Instead of being discouraged, I took it as a challenge. I don’t like to hear the word ‘no.’”
A Journey of Recovery and Discovery
With the support of the Desert Ability Center, Jerry regained his mobility and confidence as it was during a cycling trip with the DAC that he experienced a significant setback—his bike broke down far into the East Valley, and he realized the lack of local repair shops for adaptive bikes.
Jerry’s solution was to start repairing adaptive bikes himself, and if you know Jerry even a little bit… You know all the greatest stories with Jerry begin with a dash of inspiration and endless hours in his garage.
Jerry’s reputation for excellence was already a force to be reckoned with in certain circles, so when his passion for adaptive biking lead to the official opening of Alcorn Adaptive Bike and Mobility Shop in 2020 it prospered.
Jerry stands behind his name and my work.
“If I do good work and help people, the business will come.”
And it has.
A Community Hub for Mobility Solutions
Jerry’s expertise and hands-on skills allows him and his team to tailor each project that comes in to meet the unique needs of people whom (like Jerry himself at one point) had lost confidence in themselves and was convinced would never have autonomy ever again.
At Alcorn Adaptive Bike and Mobility Shop we are all about making a difference, one ride at a time.
