Roanoke, VA to Yorktown, VA

I have set a short term goal to help prepare me for the cross country trip in 2013. Next May, I plan to bike from Roanoke, VA to Yorktown, VA! I'm so excited, but have a TON to do before then! The trip should only take 5-7 days so I'm hoping it will give me a good taste of what to expect. Anybody want to join me? :)
