The day before the ride do a little 3-5 mile ride just to remind your muscles that something is coming. It sounds silly but really helps.
The folks here had great input such as two water bottles. I bring little pre-measured baggies of gatorade and keep them handy and mix one water bottle with it at the rest stops. Avoid heavy fatted foods the day before the ride. As others said, keep a comfortable pace and you will be paid back near the end while others may be bonking.
At the rest stops, grab something to eat. I personally had good luck going back and forth between bananas and snickers bars. I had bad luck with those huge bagels. Maybe a 1/4 bagel would do.
