A program that teaches young Atlantans how to ride bikes suffered a major loss this week, after thieves emptied a storage trailer, making off with 26 bikes and 24 helmets.

The “Shifting Gears” program helps young cyclists learn how to navigate city streets on two wheels from an early age — particularly in underserved communities that suffer from high rates of traffic injuries and fatalities.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – With golf week about a month away, Augusta homeowners say preparations are underway — and for the first time since Hurricane Helene, the process is starting to feel routine.

Homeowner Aaron Kasdorf said work on his property began as far back as February.

“We always try to improve or fix things that maybe have broken or have gone down over the years,” Kasdorf said.

He said the process moves in stages, starting outside before working inward.

“So we get, we start in the yard first. We tackle the yard, get the yard prepped and ready to go… and then we work our way inside and try to do it room by room,” Kasdorf said.

‘Record-breaking year’ for Augusta rentals

Corporate Quarters, a property management company, said this year’s tournament season stands out.

“This record-breaking year in Augusta, Georgia is just a testament to Augusta’s community and the local hospitality that we want to provide for everybody that comes here,” said Kelly Starr, Director of Operations and Events at Corporate Quarters.

Starr said the rental income carries significant weight for homeowners still recovering from the hurricane.

“A lot of homeowners were struggling during the hurricane because that money was spent on rebuilding their homes. And this money is invaluable to all of the homeowners here,” Starr said.

Kasdorf said the financial impact of a single tournament week is substantial.

“It almost covers the yearly mortgage for the one week that they’re here,” Kasdorf said.

Starr added that growth across Augusta is helping draw additional visitors and revenue to the area.

4 things to know about the weather:

1. So Many Clouds
2. Not Too Much Rain
3. Milder For The Weekend
4. Warmer Days Next Week

The dividing line between the 50s and the 70s is a cold front that has been wedged right down into our area by high pressure anchored over New England. East winds will bring our air off the ocean and Bay and both of those bodies of water are COLD this time of year.

Afternoon highs will stay in the 40s near the Bay, should reach the low/mid 50s near DC and could be near 60° west of Fredericksburg.

Very little sunshine today but not too much of a rain chance. Clouds, fog and 40s for all tonight.

Download the NBC Washington app on iOS and Android to check the weather radar on the go.

A developing storm over the Ohio Valley will finally begin to push that high pressure away tomorrow. Our afternoon highs will be dependent on how soon our wind can turn around to the Southwest.

Plan for a cloudy and chilly Saturday morning with a big jump in temperatures by mid-afternoon. Northern and Northeastern Maryland will remain cooler, but the rest of the area should pop above 70° for the first time this year.

The aforementioned storm will send a front through our area Saturday night. That front will bring a round of showers along with it. Showers will be likely Saturday evening and night.

The majority of that rain chance will be ending before noon on Sunday and the return of a little sun on Sunday afternoon should warm most areas to near 70° once again.

The first few days of next week will feel more like May than March. Highs on Monday should be near 75° and both Tuesday and Wednesday could top 80°. That warm pattern won’t last long, but it sure will feel good.
