500 a day. Gets you where you want to go, but still gives you time to see what's along the way.

Who are you going with?

It's 2577.07 miles according to MapQuest.  You could get there in 3 days, but I'd say 5-6 days would be easy.  Depends on your butt and whoever else's butt is going.

One day when my bike grows up I'd like to make 500 miles in one day.  Of course, I'd have to put on my "big girl panties" too...

Gonna do the Sea to Sky Highway while you're in Vancouver? It's a great ride!. Don't know about the weather in May, it could get ugly in the upper altitudes. Been lot's of construction in the last year also. here's a link to the  construction schedules, (just in case).
