Nothing wrong with that, it's best to be prepared for the worst and have nothing happen to not be prepared and have the worse happen. I got into a habit of carrying a lot of stuff too because I use to, and still do, like to ride into remote areas and if I have failure I need to at least limp home and not walk home! I'm the kind of guy to that does not rely on my wife to act as stand in mommy when things go wrong, I will do whatever it takes to get the situation handled, in fact I'm so much that way I don't even carry a cell phone when I ride which forces me not to rely on someone else!
