Exactly what I've found. Brompton touring as in post #2 was in Provence (Mont Ventoux just out of shot). Yes, the limitations of a 3-speed Sturmey Archer IGH were a bit of a challenge some days but I have refined my set up over time and found the bike very comfortable and enjoyable to ride all day, even loaded.I've toured on just about every bike I've got. Provence on a Brompton, fixed, road bike, singlespeed, it's all doable. Of course, some things are more sensible than others, but nothing's impossible.
Tl; Dr - Yes.
I did not go up Ventoux -- but my partner did on his Mark II Bickerton!
