UPDATE May 8th 2020: From Team Evergreen Cycling - We’ve been working closely with state and city officials on where things stand with COVID-19 and our event. While we had hoped that July 11-12th would go on as planned, the Town of Avon has officially pulled our permit for hosting our finish on those dates.
In consideration of the severity of the effects of COVID-19 on our riders, communities and state, we’ve come up with a plan:Our team has secured September 26th for the Triple Bypass. With the reschedule, our permitting agencies are not allowing us to host a 2-day event. We can only offer the Triple Bypass as a single-day event in 2020.
Check out the new event here.

If you are an Iowan with a passion for cycling and challenging rides, then the Triple Bypass is probably on your bucket list. Riders travel over three mountain passes and experience gorgeous Colorado mountain views and exhilarating descents. So resolve to do something epic. Ride 40, 75, 120 or 240 miles in the gorgeous Rocky Mountains on multiple closed roads with stocked aid, food, beer and high fives.
The Triple Bypass truly is an epic Rocky Mountain ride! It is fully supported and features breathtaking views, including the Continental Divide, gradual mountain climbs and thrilling descents on closed roads, aid stations about every 20 miles and friendly volunteers and staff. Plus, each registered cyclist receives an exclusive Triple Bypass jersey designed by Primal and a finisher medal.

Evergreen to Avon and back (Sat & Sun)
It’s back! For 2020 only, we are bringing back the big daddy, the Double Triple Bypass. Ride from Evergreen to Avon, wake up the next day and ride back to Evergreen. Includes a limited edition wind vest, timing on Sunday, all the Triple goodies and the admiration of your peers. 20,000 vertical feet. You double-rock!
The Triple Bypass
120 Miles
Evergreen to Avon (Sat or Sun)
Get on board for one of the most epic rides in the nation. Head west over Juniper, Loveland and Vail pass, finishing after 120 glorious miles and 10,000 vertical feet. You rock.
The Double Bypass
75 miles
Georgetown to Avon (Sat only)
Looking to make it less daunting? How about 2 incredible passes – Loveland and Vail over 75 miles? Less than the full Triple, but one heck of an achievement.
The Single Bypass
40 Miles
Breckenridge to Avon (Sat only)
Sleep in, join your friends and family in Copper Mountain and ride 40 miles over Vail Pass into Avon. Great views on one of the best parts of the course.
Timing on Sunday - New for 2020!
Riders on Sunday (including Double Triple) will have a timing chip in their number plate and the uphill portions of the passes will be timed. Timing is Gran Fondo style and the Triple Bypass is not a race. Only one to beat is the clock. Awards? There will be awards.
