Picnic Benchfind a memorable place for a ride stop
Picnic Bench is a stop-finding challenge that asks you to photograph a picnic bench, outdoor table or public bench during a ride. The proof must also include the bicycle, helmet, gloves or another clear cycling cue, so the image records a place discovered by bike rather than a bench on its own.

The mission
How to validate Picnic Bench
What is the objective?
Find one of the accepted outdoor sitting surfaces while you are out cycling and make it the subject of the stop.
Proof
Upload a single image. A helmet on the bench or the bicycle beside it can create a direct visual connection while keeping both subjects distinct.
Completion rule
The bench or table and the cycling context both need to be clear. Let the photo establish the place without relying on a written explanation.
Photo must show a picnic bench, outdoor table, or public bench with bike, helmet, gloves, or cycling context visible.
