Bend Oregon, so nice we go twice

That’s right. In case you missed it Jr. Nationals will be held in Bend in 2009 AND 2010. According to the  Bend Bulletin “The nation’s top cycling authority made an unprecedented move Wednesday when it awarded Bend a second major bike-racing championship.

USA Cycling has named Bend the host city for the 2009 and 2010 Junior, U23 & Elite Road National Championships. Dates for this year’s event are July 28-Aug. 2.

Six weeks ago Bend was selected by USA Cycling to host the Cyclocross National Championships, also a two-year deal. The 2009 cyclocross championships are scheduled for Dec. 10-13.

After combing the record books, USA Cycling officials stated in a news release that this is the first time in recent history that two of its national championships will be held in the same city in the same year. Walla Walla, Wash., and a group of three Seattle suburbs also bid to host the road championships.”

So there you go. Best to find accommodations you  really like since you’ll be spending 2 summers in a row in lovely Bend.
