Well done Joe congratulations on your first century ride. I did my first century by taking an unscheduled detour on the first stage of the London to Paris bike ride 2005 (London to Dover).
It should have been 60-something. But since then I've been bitten by the distance bug, and the furthest I've been in a single day is a smidge over 200 miles (North Lancashire and Lake District). It gets easier - honest.
It does sound like you nearly bonked, you need to keep those calories coming- they're cyclist fuel.
unscheduled detour = missed a sign and got lost for a bit then had to backtrack.
