Need some help with recovery before weekend century

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Need some help with recovery before weekend century

Doing a century this Sunday. Not much time to train, no rides over 30 miles so far this year. Gonna go bootcamp and ride for 24 hours straight starting at noon today. I will do 20 minute intervals each hour, on the hour. Not going to try to be the first in, just want to finish with the leading group or top 20. I know I'll be tired tomorrow afternoon so I need some suggestions for recovery so I'll be fresh Sunday morning. Off to get some more sleep before I start.
