I am planning on leaving my lock(s) locked to the bike rack & I'll keep a small can of WD-40 in my desk drawer for when I need to lube it to keep it operating correctly. Unless I should use something other then WD-40 for this?
Sounds like a plan. Leave the WD-40 at home. It's NOT a lubricant. It's a water displacement catalyst that's good for a few things, like blasting grime and water out of a chain before degreasing and lubricating with a real lube, stopping oxidization, and breaking frozen/rusted fasteners loose.
Use an actual chain lube for your chain. There are DOZENS of different lubes, and it's a holy war, like mac vs. PC, chevy vs. ford, or campy vs. shimano. It comes down to what kind of conditions you'll be riding in and personal preference.
