Go for it, a Century is totally doable as long as the bike is comfortable, many have toured across the US on folders.
As for that night ride, you should try it sometime. I love doing that in the summer. I live in a small town and usually by 8 or 9 the traffic has died down, then its like you own the streets.
The days near a full moon are great for riding in the country roads. There is something surreal about the low light, even on roads you know well. I wear a reflective vest and put on some blinkies just so cars can see me.
Enjoy your new bike, the adventures have only just begun.
