Subject: Hill Comparisons Branson vs. IMSG or Silverman
Just curious if anyone at the Branson HIM has also done IMSG or Silverman and how the hills compare? I'm signed up for the Silverman full this fall and don't have many chances to ride hills. I felt pretty good at Branson. Should I be reassured or worried?

I haven't done either, but am signed up for both (and have done lanzarote previously) From what I read, it sounds like branson was about 3000' or so elevation. Silverman bike profile shows about 9700' climbing, so it looks like silverman would be substantially more difficult. If you did well at branson, obviously you are better off than if you hadn't, but no guarantee for silverman.
