Absolutely. In a world where everyone is looking for the singular 'best', its great to see how many different, successful, approaches there are. From classic steel frames with twin ortleib panniers to a Pinarello with carbon aero-luggage.
I am genuinely surprised to see a lack of behind-the-arse hydration though. I know @bananaskid gone for it and I think I probably would too. Some of those bottles look either crazy difficult to get to or open to disgusting wheel crud over the course of a few thousand km. That said, I've never ridden across Europe and I'm sure everyone riding has put more thought into it than me.
