Some road sense and sustenance would help. Take a few energy bars with you and two or three bananas. Since you are using a camelback, you’ll have room for those things plus you might even consider a couple of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Better yet peanut butter and honey. You should be fine. 150 miles is far but not too far. You seem to have everything else you need.

Tube patches/tire levers. Shoes and clothes for off bike. Mosquito repellent. Sunscreen. Paper towels. iPod. Flashlight.
Have fun.

Camera, cell phone, tire pump, properly mounted blinking tail light, sunglasses, and a great sense of adventure.
