    Somewhat silly, but I'm inordinately pleased to arrive at work today
    with the odometer function of my bike computer reading 9999.9.
    I've done many 10s of thousands of kilometres, but this is the first
    time I've had one of these last long enough to fill up.

    Something requiring your full attention will happen within 100m of
    your leaving work, and you'll miss the changeover to 10000.0 (or 0000.0?).

    No-one has ever proved that cycle helmets make cycling any safer at
    the population level, and anyway cycling is about as safe per mile as
    walking.

    Alternatively, some reader of this NG with too much time on their
    hands on a Friday afternoon will sneak up to your bike and spin the
    front wheel a few dozen times ;-)
