Ive been to the TOC twice once in the Grand Fondo and the other being sportive. I actually did the 67 mile sportive- not fit enough for 100 miler ( glad too hot dry windy conditions)
The Grand Fondo was absolutely knackering but also exhilarating. I had never ridden so fast in groups before or since.
Spend a few months regularly riding through the week in zone 2 building up time in the saddle. Once you've built your base, add in speed work while maintaining some distance rides.
