Looks like I might be doing this one alone. There is a 100k and 100 mile option. The ride starts from New Baden IL City Park between 6:30 and 8:30 AM. It costs $30 and includes lunch. I am confirmed and preregistered. If anyone else is interested we can carpool or agree to a meeting time.

Can't help you out. I am off my bike on Sunday.
For anyone intersted,
The pancake ride was well organized and quite good. There were plenty of road marking well in advance of the turns. Plenty of rest stops with water and a couple with snacks. Lunch was the standard make your own lunch meat sandwich or pb&j with chips, pasta salad, apples and oranges.
I completed the 100k with an average speed of 17.6 and finished the century with an average speed 16.8 in just over 6 hours. Since I was by myself, drafting was minimized. I found a speedy little guy. Unfortunately,he barely had any slip streem. I held his wheel for about 10 miles but had to let him go as he wasn't helping much. Next time I will find someone larger to draft off.
I almost forgot. It rained the first hour. Just when you finally got dried off you had to ride a 1/4 mile section of flooded road.
