HAZEL DELL — To Woody Woodworth, a bicycle is more than a way of getting around. It’s a tool he uses to give back to the community, and help watch over it.

On Sunday evening, Woodworth was given a new custom-fit bike, a jacket, a bike helmet and bright LED lights — and many Christmas well wishes — from the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.
