Nice to get back to riding after 20 years. You two done good!
Rode with Grandpa 'Foxy' Delano on a 200 miler in Michigan back in the 1970s. He was quite the rider!
We tend to take along our own favorite food sources to supplement what the sag stops have to offer (hey, I don't like PB&J!).
As for Garmin, Google or the organizers we always take the claims of hills/distance with a couple grains of salt.
We tend to keep a steady pace no matter what riders pass us . . . many times we'll pass them toward the end.
Did a back-2-back century in Ohio that turned out to be 125 miles the first day and 100 the second day.
Enjoy the ride TWOgether!
