muddy tires cycling challenge
Muddy Tiresbring back visible evidence of a dirty ride
Muddy Tires is a close-up cycling challenge that asks you to photograph muddy tyres, a muddy frame or other clear mud on the bicycle. The bike itself carries the proof, so the mud needs to be genuinely visible rather than implied by the surrounding path.

The mission
How to validate Muddy Tires
What is the objective?
Finish a ride with visible mud on the tyres, frame or another part of the bicycle and document it.
Proof
Upload one photo focused closely enough to make the dirt unmistakable while retaining the shape of the relevant bicycle part.
Completion rule
Show clear mud on the bike itself. A muddy trail with a clean bicycle would not satisfy the current wording.
Photo must show muddy tires, muddy frame, or clear mud on the bike.

The context
Why try this quest?
This quest reverses the usual polished-bike photograph. Texture, splashes and the line of the tyre are the details worth preserving.
Practical tips
- Photograph the tyre from the side to reveal tread and mud texture together.
- Use indirect light so wet mud does not become a featureless dark patch.
- Take the proof before washing, but after the bike is stable.
Questions about this quest
- Does mud on the bicycle frame count?
- Yes. The rule accepts muddy tyres, a muddy frame or other clear mud on the bike.
- Is a photo of a muddy path enough?
- No. This challenge specifically requires visible mud on the bicycle.
