Default help me plan my ride from Mass to D.C.

I am heading up to a buddies to pull my 78' Shovel out and bring it to Florida. It is in Eastern Mass now and I will be riding it down to D.C. where I will catch the AutoTrain down to Orlando. I have 4-5 days to make the trip so I can take my time. Can you guys and gals recommend some great bike roads south from Mass? I can stay on the coast or head west, it really does not matter to me.

Head West young man. Why go down 95 etc through CT NY and NJ. If you have the time ride 20 all the way across Mass to Rt 8 south down into Winsted Ct. Then West,forgot the twisty road over to 7 in Cannan Ct. Head south to 55 in Gaylordsville Ct and head west across ny.

Dont know if you left yet....but......

Once you get to Philly (grab a cheesesteak at Jim's then go the Revzilla store near the Naval yard!!), there isnt much till you get past Wilmington. From there hop on Rt 9 South it will follow the DE coastline all the way down to Dover Air Force Base.

From there jump on RT 1 South, and take that down to the beaches, Dewey, Bethany, Fenwick, then Ocean City Maryland. From, OC you can take 50 over to DC
