Sounds good to me! Do you have a lock? Even if you have indoor bike parking at home and at work, you may want to stop off on an errand on your way home. You can then figure out as you start commuting what other things you find would suit your own preferences. I like to ride with a mirror, others don't and just shoulder check periodically and as needed.
