The achievement can be claimed when you reach a geohash by bike on the correct day, and take a photo of yourself containing the necessary proof. Using a car, public transport or any other vehicle that is not entirely powered by yourself is not allowed. Monocycles, trikes and scooters may also belong to this achievement, as long as no electric skateboard is used.
