1. I am new to bike touring! And new to this forum! 
2. I have ridden 50+mi in a day but do not have much experience with multiple day long distance bike trips.
3. I am in my 20s, am an avid rock climber, hiker, mountaineer, camper, etc.
4. I am planning on riding the Pacific Coast Hwy next fall with my brother and would like to start building my experience level to ensure that I enjoy it.
Which leads me to the point of this post:
I will be spending Thanksgiving in Lake James, NC. I have until the end of December to adventure in the South on my bike. I am open to any and all trip suggestions. Thinking 2 weeks, 400-600mi? I have looked at the Blue Ridge Parkway. I have also explored the possibility of biking to Nashville where a friend could drive me and my bike back to Wisconsin for Christmas.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks!
