I have been contemplating riding Team Evergreen's annual Triple Bypass ride. Anyone here tackle it? 10K feet elevation climb over 120 miles sounds pretty grueling! Just wanted to get an insider's perspective to the course. Thanks!

I've never ridden it, but I have watched it, and know folks who have done it.

It is an accomplishment that sets you apart, to say the least. The Team Evergreen "Triple ByPass" Jersey is well respected.

It is tough - Squaw Pass, Loveland Pass, Vail Pass.

If you are in really good shape, GO FOR IT!

My wife won't let me. she says at 63 I shouldn't be doing that.

Makes for a good excuse.
