Recovery doesn't mean not to ride or run. Unless you over extended yourself and became dehydrated or worse, then just don't go all out hard for a day or two. Moderate length rides at an easy pace and even a few short sprints or personal KOM attempts are fine during that ride, IMO. As is any other activity done at low level of exertion.
If you are really fit then even the century ride might not require recovery if you did it at a low effort.
