What kind of equipment are you using? With static routes that would be most
difficult.  If your using some sort of link state or hybrid routing
protocol, it should be easier.
Say you have internal addressing of 10-net and external is all X-net.  Each
of your three connections will have there own connection to the X-net, and
if you prefer you can have one primary X-net interface at the hub site.  It
is primary because you associate it with a lower cost (bandwidth, delay,
reliability modifiers, etc.) the other backup routes also have a cost
associated with them, each one higher than the other.  On the otherhand, if
you want each site to use its own local X-net connection you may specify the
costs of those routes to be the same.  And if one or two X-net routes would
go down, the routers at each site would be able to learn the path to X-net
from another site.

Sorry for being so general, but that is the idea.
