Another metric century and a question...

Completed a 63 mile ride yesterday amongst the giant wind turbines that reside in the Thumb of Michigan! Beautiful day! Not as many hills as last week, but a LOT more wind! Which if course explains the wind turbines!

Ok... the question part... I'm seriously considering a century next weekend... I've been back in the saddle for about 2 months now.. I've done 2 metric centuries, 2 Saturdays in a row... I'm doing about 110 miles a week... I'm trying to remember back 20 years ago when I first started biking... and the first time I did a solo century.. I was lighter then but I'm not sure I was as strong as I am now... I also have a lot more experience now, as far as knowing "how" to ride a century... So the question is... am I crazy to think about trying a century next weekend? Part of me thinks I can just take my time and make my way through it... the other part... well, he thinks I'm crazy! LOL
