    I should have put a warning in the original text - 'this comp may cause duck rage and will take over your life for the next week' :D

    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    I guess you will have to give up sleeping for a week if you want to stand a chance of winning - otherwise just enjoy participating. :wave:

    I can't believe that in just one day I actually give a damn where my duck is, but I do! Needs a lot of love my little guy, but never seems to get up to the max speeds you loot talk of, will have to rejiggle the bars
      To those who are given much, much is expected

      3. hehe, I've got no hope of winning the comp based on some other peoples distances but very much enjoying the private competition between me and the OH!

        he's winning now cos he's a student and can check on his duck all day while I have to go to work :(

        I've done 11311 miles in 5 days and 20 minutes.

        I love this comp but it is driving me a bit mad too.

        How is everyone else doing?
