Cycle down to Williamsburg, nearby is Jamestown and Yorktown. Plenty of American history to immerse yourself in. http://www.colonialwilliamsburg.com Fantastic area.

Reuse, recycle, thus do your bit to save the planet.... Get stuff at auctions, Dump, Charity Shops, Facebook Marketplace, Ebay, Car Boots. Choose an Old House, and a Banger ..... And cycle as often as you can......

If you do do it beware the fogs which can be real pea soupers where you can't see the centre line or edge of the road and cars can't see you. Not ideal given the distances between habitations.
In the summer the area you are going to can get very very sticky and hot so plan your seasons to visit.

If you can get to Pittsburgh there is a railtrail and former towpath all the way back to central Washington Dc.
