I pretty much always have a spoke wrench, too. A good one.

You don't want a good one because you need to remove a broken spoke - you want a good one so you can lower the tension on the spokes around the one that broke so the wheel will be true enough to ride home on. And you don't want to strip the nipples on those spokes with a cheap spoke wrench.
