I have a "Saturday Century" group of friends that varies between 2 and 15 riders. I occaisionally do a double on Saturdays or add another century ride on Sunday. If I am away at work, I find a gym with a spin bike and put in the approximate ride time in.
I think I could do less and still be in "Century anytime" condition.
I hope you're talking about km and not miles, although even in km I'd consider that pretty hard core.
Last year I did several 300 mile months and had no problem doing a flat relaxed century. I could do a hilly century but would suffer a lot.
