The hardest part of Damon Elmore’s recent 10-mile bicycling excursion through Bulloch County came very close to the end: climbing Joe Hodges Hill on Georgia Highway 67.Ten miles is routine for an experienced cyclist like Elmore. But Bulloch County was his third ride of the day, after taking similar rides in Candler and Emanuel counties.Even so, he showed little sign of fatigue once he pulled into the start/finish of his journey, The Bike Shop on Highway 67.Even more notable than Bulloch being his third county of the day on May 3, it was the 86th Georgia county in which he had cycled since November. That left him with 73 to go to accomplish his goal of riding in all of the state’s 159 counties.Elmore is doing this not only because he is a bicycling enthusiast, but as part of his campaign to raise awareness, and money, for the Georgia Legal Services Program.He said he came up with the idea when he bought his new bicycle last year and his neighbor was training for a Susan G. Komen 3-Day event, in which participants raise money for breast cancer and walk a total of 60 miles over three days.“I thought, couldn’t I naturally bike to raise awareness, and how would I make it interesting, what would I accomplish?”
