Dawn touring would be pretty hardcore. Dusk touring, I understand, but is something to avoid, unless setting up camp in the dark is your aim (easier to hide)! Of course, your doing the B&B thing, a bit of dusk riding doesn't hurt, except you are much harder to see by other vehicles. Normally best to tour in daylight. Either way, all you should need is a good head-light like a Petzl, a back up light (maybe a second headlight, like a Planet Bike headlight) and rear light (like a Planet Bike Superflash). Rechargeable batteries and a smaller wall charger, depending on the length of the tour.
For commuting and randonneuring, it would be hard to beat a hub dynamo system.
