Default Planning my first Road Trip

How would I go about planning a road trip? I'm headed from East Tennessee down to Tyler, Texas (East Texas) in the beginning of May, but figured I should start looking into which routes to take. Since I only have a 300cc, I'm thinking I don't want to mess with the major interstates too much. At 65mph she's wound up pretty good, and I'm not sure how long she can handle high speeds. Any suggestions on how to plan? Any roads/routes in between TN and TX I shouldn't miss? As always, thanks for your help y'all.
