Thanks for the input everybody. I think I've got a reasonable plan worked out. A couple friends have offered tents for borrowing, and I think I'll take them up on it. It will save money on the trip. Food will still bought along the way, though.

My plan at the moment:
May 31: Rochester to Holley; a hair under 30 miles. Camp in Holley.
June 1: Holley to Middleport; 25ish miles. Camp in Middleport.
June 2: Middleport to Tonawanda, with a possible detour to Pendleton Center; 27 to 31 miles. Motel in Tonawanda.
June 3: Tonawanda to Buffalo and back, and sightseeing in the area; 30ish miles. Motel in Tonawanda again.
Reverse the route on the way back. I'd be back at home on June 6th.

The obvious ways to do some longer segments would be to cut out either the Holley or Middleport stop, creating a roughly 55 mile leg. I've done 45 miles in one day with much worse hills (Henrietta to the Port of Rochester and back through Seneca Park), so that should be doable.

I still need to investigate going up along the lake on the way back.
