I went the other way and upgraded both my road and 'cross bike to triples 
I'm stuck with 10 speed for road use and I think that's dandy for me. I don't use the inner ring too much, if ever in the KW area but climbing the escarpment it sure is nice. I also loved the range and tight spacing for climbing the big mountain passes I did out west last year. I found the triple a lot nicer to have on the granite anvil 1200 since the hills in Eastern Ontario are especially steep and frequent. If anyone is into riding centuries, there's one called the Hastings Highlands Hilly Hundred that hits up some of the same hills and the area is very scenic and the roads were quiet when I rode through last year. I might hit it up this year since I don't have any big rides planed for September yet.
