Motor Mouths Podcast – Sheriff Mike Jolley-Episode 13

In this episode of the Motor Mouths Podcast, we sit down with one of the original riders and a longtime member of the Ride for Miracles family, Sheriff Mike Jolley of Harris County, Georgia.

Mike takes us back to his childhood, growing up on a farm in South Georgia, and shares the experiences that helped shape the man he would become. We talk about his service to our country in the military, his journey into law enforcement, and how that career eventually led him to become Sheriff of Harris County—a position he has proudly held for the past 34 years.

We also dive into Mike’s connection to the Ride for Miracles and how he became part of the ride in its early days. More importantly, Mike explains what the ride truly means to him.

Of course, no Motor Mouths conversation would be complete without some stories from the road. Mike shares plenty of funny moments, memorable rides, and stories that have stayed with him over the years, along with some of his favorite places to ride.

This is a conversation about service, friendship, motorcycles, memories, and a shared commitment to helping kids—and a great reminder of why the Ride for Miracles is about so much more than just riding motorcycles.
