i"m with you there! I've actually stopped riding organized centuries because I feel that I can now ride 100 miles with my riding buddies without a huge support team any time I feel like it. That said, I would like to ride another double century in the next few years (perhaps about the time I hit 70). For that, I definitely need the support that an organized ride provides, and it's possible that I might not finish, as occurred on my last double century attempt. I'm not sure if I will still feel this way when I hit 75.
