I was going to add, just use the flat pedals to begin with. You can always upgrade to clipless/cleats later. It's a scary prospect, riding clipped in, but you soon get used to it.
Although Speedplay are miles better than other pedals.
At least on road bikes they are.
And, as supporting evidence, here's a picture of Wiggo's TdF bike:

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

Seriously though, I'd get a helmet. Not that they should be compulsory.

Locks carry three different ratings, according to how secure they are. In a beautiful piece of synchronicity with the Olympics, these ratings are gold, silver and bronze.
All recommendations I've read are to get gold or silver. Avoid bronze.
The other recommendation is to use two locks, of different types, the idea being it'll at least mean a thief has to be carrying two different sets of tools to get at your pride and joy. So get a D-lock and some sort of chain lock.
Lock the back wheel through the frame, obviously, and take off or lock any parts that can easily be removed (e.g. saddle and front wheel, if it has a quick release skewer)..

pedals furiously in opposite direction.
