Would not, should not tour with a burley travois.
bad weight distribution, plastic locking mechanisms in the frame knuckles.
Try it for a weekend tour, sure, it's probably going to be okay.
and certainly, you could tour with it. people used to tour on solid tire ordinaries. its not as if you can't use ill suited equipment for the job, if that's all one has.
Would I use a burley travois for a tour? Absolutely not.
What are you going to do with all the gear you're touring with? Schlepp that into the gym locker as well?
To me, personally, it sounds like a lot of trouble. I'd just ask the gyms if they would let you park a loaded touring bike in some back space somewhere.
