Your tough break pointed out that you are a tough guy. Hope you heal quickly and your bike is OK.
Whenever I map a route for an event, I label it with the actual mileage and if I miss the target, I make sure I go over, not under. I know that when I set out to do a metric or a century, I want to do at least 62 or 100 miles. Too much over that can be tedious, but anything under is false advertising by my standards.
