Kudos on embarking on a new pursuit! Enjoy all the possibilities that await you in the Great Big World of cycling. Ride often, enjoy yourself.

The book Distance Cycling has various century (and longer rides) training programs. I think it has an 8-week and a 15-week version.

Check your local library.

This book helped me a whole lot: http://www.amazon.com/Distance-Cycling-John-Hughes/dp/0736089241

I use the RideWithGPS app with the $6/month sub. Offline maps, turn-by-turn directions, GPX exports for Strava bragging rights, good stuff.

Also, wool base layer and wool socks.
