		<title>USA Cycling Nationals 2010: Bend, Oregon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first day has come and gone with many of the names that have won in previous years have won.  The least surprising of which, in my opinion, would have to be the Tandem of Dave Swanson and Clark Rachfal, they are a strong team and these results, along with the gap between the next [...]]]></description>
