I think that this was the first year that the 46 has been run isn't it? I'd agree that a bit more publicity around it would be good, and maybe cutting the numbers on the 100 and pushing slower riders to the 46 would help.
Upping it to a 50 would be a nice touch too, kind of like the Marathon/Half Marathon split.
The biggest problems that I ran into were mostly, I think, due to everyone having bunched up more than at the start, after to the incident at Pyrford.

The 46 could be promoted a bit more and become the less-of-a-smashfest option but still with the attraction of being on closed roads. Might at least reduce the numbers doing the full 100 while maintaining/increasing the total number of participants spread across the two events. If so, at least up it to 50 miles though so it still sounds like a challenge.
