Advice for hopeful distance rider

As a novice cyclist, I'm hoping to get some advice as to whether I could ride a 190 mile charity ride (over 2 days) on this bike ('84 Univega Maxima). It seems that most distance riders I've seen are using bikes worth several thousand dollars, and as a college student, it's a little tough to afford one. While out riding today, I obviously went a lot slower than some of more experienced riders around me, but that can be expected. If you have any other suggestions as well, I would appreciate them. Thanks
