Before work and after work on the trainer (snow,cold,dark here now so it's inside to ride)
Not doubles every day, just once in a while.
I only have about 30mins - 1 hr in the AM, same in PM though I can get away with longer rides sometimes.
Coming back after a 1 month rest.
Training for Oly in May, HIM in mid Summer.

What would that look like?

I regularly do 2 a day bike (often as a commute)

The way I structure it is :

AM) Focus on Drills and cadence work

PM) Focus on intervals and tempo sessions

I do double days a lot. Given you only have about :30 each session. Do intervals and mix in a :20 hard effort off and on.

If you can get close to an hour on the bike once a day, you shouldn't need to get back on the bike later in the day.  During that one ride, work hard--really hard.  If you have time in the PM and feel OK, go for an EZ run.
