You'll be fine, treat it like a holiday and not an endurance trip and it'll make all the difference.

Motorways (very busy ones aside) are only to be feared on a bike for their boredom factor, they are uber-tedious and best avoided where at all possible.

Long trips is motorcycling at it's very best for me, as nice as a wee afternoon pootle is, there's just nothing better than chucking some stuff together on the back seat and heading off somewhere.
