Bikegeohash.png

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.

Geohasher(s) Coordinates Distance (there, back) Notes
Arvid 2008-10-04 Tubbergen and Groningen, Netherlands 339km (31.2, 141.7, 166.5) Multihash on 52 6 (my home graticule) and 53 6 (Groningen). Distances home->hash1->hash2->home.

Juja 2009-05-07 Dittersdorf, Germany 101km (46km there, 55km back) All by bike and back, with a little food detour. The very best thing to do with your day off.

Zigdon 2008-06-07 San Francisco, CA ~64km
