I'm the same at the moment. Just the 1 century a month. Mainly because my 2 usual mile eater rising buddies have dropped out of the challenge, and this godamn awful weather.
Another step today up to 97 , Closing in on @Dogtrousers and the magic ton 3 more required

I'm still stuck on 97 with 4 more needed for the 100. I've not done a 100 miler since December.
Imperial Eddington 97
for 98 need 2
for 99 need 3
for 100 need 4
for 101 need 19
That's according to my own code. The cyclingrelated calculator that gave me 98 has a bug.

If you've done 97 imperial centuries, then surely you only need 3 more to get to 100?

No, my Eddington Number is 97 which means I've done 97 x 97+ mile rides. Not 97 centuries.
One of those 97+ mile rides was only 97 miles.
I've actually done 96 imperial centuries (or longer) plus a 97 miler.

Apologies, I read it as you'd done 97 centuries. I'll go stand in the corner

I'd almost forgotten about Eddington. I used to keep track of both my lifetime number and also that for rides recorded by GPS, so mid-February 2016 onwards.
The last century (111 miles) I rode was in September 2021, leaving me as shown below. Not really where I'd want to be leaving things...

51 milesOnly another 11 for 52
congratulations. 50 is my target to be completed this year within 3 years of taking this up.
Now less than 10 to get to 50 and I can't see it ever going (much) higher!
