I have done many long hilly rides on fixed gear (including PBP), but the thought of riding 100 flat miles scares me. On rolling terrain, you naturally stand up, vary your cadence, use different muscle groups. On fixed gear, flats will be a pain in the ass (literally) after a couple hours. If I had to do it, I would choose 75 to 80 gear inches and plan to stand a lot.
