Austin to Vancouver, Need help/input!

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the biking scene and this forum so hopefully I can get some good advice.

I plan on riding to Vancouver from Austin, TX in June (to raise money for www.imoutreach.com) and was wondering if yall thought this was feasible.

We are planning on taking 40 days to finish the trip (60-80 miles/day). None of us have really had much experience with a long distance ride of this magnitude.

I was thinking about getting this bike, http://www.bianchiusa.com/bikes/coas...7-2300-triple/ for the ride.
*Also, if you have any other suggestions on bikes, that would be greatly appreciated!*

We are all in pretty good shape, but our training has just been light to moderate, nothing hardcore yet, so basically my question is, do yall think its possible to pull off a trip of this distance with only about two months of training?
