Double Out-and-back
A variation on the theme is to have the track travel from point A to point B, then back to A twice. Examples of this type of ride include the venerable Comet, which was moved from Crystal Beach in Ontario to Great Escape at Queensbury, New York, and the Phoenix at Knoebels' Amusement Resort in Elysburg, Pennsylvania.

Famous quotes containing the word double:
“Actually being married seemed so crowded with unspoken rules and odd secrets and unfathomable responsibilities that it had no more occurred to her to imagine being married herself than it had to imagine driving a motorcycle or having a job. She had, however, thought about being a bride, which had more to do with being the center of attention and looking inexplicably, temporarily beautiful than it did with sharing a double bed with someone with hairy legs and a drawer full of boxer shorts.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
