Canon 100mm f2.8 prime macro USM on a cropped sensor?

I have a Canon T1i, and currently have the Canon 10-22 ultrawide and the kit lens that came with it. I want to get a macro lens that can also be used for portraits and even a walkaround lens in certain places, and the Canon 100mm macro f2.8 seems perfect. However, it's an EF lens, so it will be more like 160mm on my camera. Is this too much?

Used the L a few times, loved it!

The 60mm 2.8 is amazing as well.

Pretty much any of the Canon's 2.8 is amazing.
