What bike would you recommend for a century?

[Fredwina]

let me rephrase myself:
What's the most miles you've done in one sitting? and how soon do you plan to do said century.
Most of us could lose more wieght off our "engines" than what we'd lose by going to a more expensive bike.
The Sequioa has drops, does it not? Both JoBob and Moi do brevet rides, so we can't use areobars. In short, if you feel comfotable with the bike, there's no real need to get a high-zoot bike. You may want to, and that's fine. but don't expect a magic pill.
