Since your pace will be relatively moderate (and I recall from your past posts that you can be a strong rider) I would only reinforce that you have a long ride per week, maybe 50-62 miles. If you can get in a 75 or 80 mile ride or 2 before your century that would be good as well.
Good Luck and enjoy!
