Countersteer

501(c)3 Non-Profit Providing Motorcycle Education, Events and Community for Post 9/11 Veterans.

What is Countersteer?
Countersteerâ„¢ is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to our veterans to enrich their lives by providing education, events, and a place for "brothers in arms" to be with one another and find support with the everyday activity and hobby of motorcycling while helping alleviate combat stress and PTSD. Many veterans that suffer from the effects of PTSD and combat stress go undiagnosed for years. While actively helping veterans, our programs will also raise awareness of combat stress and PTSD.

22 A Day?
Many of your have heard the phrase "22 a day" which represents the alarming statistic of veterans taking their own lives due to the effects of combat stress and PTSD. What is not included in that statistic are veterans being killed on motorcycles. Returning from combat, many veterans purchase motorcycles as a replacement for adrenaline and/or a way of coping. For these men and women that have been in combat and suffer the effects of combat stress and PTSD, risk assessment and adrenaline response are skewed to the far end of the bell curve. With no formal motorcycle training, we are losing many of our veterans in motorcycle accidents. Many of which are single vehicle fatalities. Countersteer is here to help veterans find enjoyment in daily civilian life through motorcycling in a safe and responsible manner by providing schools, track days and events. While motorcycling is not defined as "traditional therapy", it is clear that it is seen as beneficial by many veterans as large numbers of veterans have been attracted to motorcycling since WWI.
