Congrats!
I used to commute by bike too. Miss it greatly.
I'll chime in with some more 2cent advice- regarding rain gear.
If you don't have any- go with something that is light and breathable. Try to avoid the low budget plastic stuff, which always seems to keep in more perspiration than keep out water. The extra $$ in higher quality rain garb makes a big difference.
I am so jealous!
