What's a realistic time table to train for the distance of R.A.IN?

For my century last Fall, I followed a plan from the book in this link that took me about 3mos to ramp the miles up. http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Book-.../dp/1579541992

Unfortunately, I had my dog crash incident, and never got to finish the event. Hoping it's true that lightening rarely strikes twice in the same spot!

Anyrate, my furthest training distance was 70mi. Pretty sure I could have cranked out the last 30mi ok in the event.

Well... just started riding as weather is finally warming up here in the midwest. But, just doesn't seem like 2.5mos (event date 7-17-10) will even be enough time to ramp up the miles?

Ops / experiences? Please share. TYIA.
