Have you toured with all that?
Try going on some short tours with it this year. Your list might be fine, but you might discover some changes you want to make.
Since you're not doing your big tour in 2015, here's a suggestion ... join Audax Australia and do some of the rides in your local area. Check out the Online Ride Calendar.
Audax Australia Cycling Club
They've got rides as short as 50 km, and of course, they go up from there. Randonneuring/Audax isn't touring, but since you're hoping to do long days on the bicycle, those rides would make for decent training.
