The Double (Triple Bypass)
The Triple's shorter sibling: an 80-mile Colorado road ride with 6,500 ft of climbing over scenic mountain terrain, with full aid station support.
The vibe
The taste-test of the Triple
Not everyone’s ready for 120 miles and three mountain passes — The Double is Triple Bypass’s answer for riders who want the same event on the same day, just with a shorter, still-substantial route. At 80 miles and 6,500 feet of climbing, it’s no small ride, but it’s an entry point into an event that’s intimidated plenty of strong cyclists.
Because it runs alongside the full Triple, riders get the same aid stations, the same road closures, and the same early-morning energy at the start line in Evergreen. You’re sharing the day with the century-plus crowd without having to match their mileage.
For first-timers to mountain road cycling in Colorado, The Double is the smart way in — build confidence on real climbs, then decide next year whether the full Triple is calling your name.
