I've earned the Triple Crown Jersey for the last five years, and the 1,000 Mile Club jersey for the last four.
Still, doubles are time consuming, and they get expensive with the entry fee, motel, eating out, gas money, etc. My wife and I did the math on it recently and it was pretty scary. She rode Butterfield, Davis and Grand Tour in 2006, so she got the Triple Crown Jersey (again), but not the thousand mile club (which she had planned).

Wow Rick! You and Jackie do great! I don't think Gina would be interested in doing the doubles with me. You're right about the expense. I'm thinking most of the rides are on Saturdays. I'd have to take every Friday night off before a ride. Don't think I could do doubles with 2 or 3 hours of sleep. Pain in the butt, but I still want to do it!
