Sounds wonderful! I'll poke around my collection and see what I could dredge up for you. 
OK, I'm back.
The Ultramarathon Cycling Association (UMCA) website has a great deal of information on training for long-distance rides. Although a lot of emphasis on that site is on RAAM and other long distance endurance races, there is a lot of info on long-distance riding (randonneuring etc) and training in general.
Lots of good info can be found here:
