I don't think Scuffmark posts a lot,so maybe it's best if someone in authority picks a new challenge.

I could ride a few hundred metres on gritted roads and find ducks...I could probably reasonably push my bike as far as is needed to find ducks.

I just CBA.

IME you need to buy in October ish anyway to get one. I've bought Turkeys and Geese a couple of times from the sorts of farmers who raise one flock a year for Christmas. Nearly all of them are sold to repeat customers every year and if you're a noob you basically need to get your name down in Autumn.

I know it doesn't count but this is the closest I'll be getting to swans & ducks whilst on two wheel for a fair while, so here you go.

Would a bottle of Wild Turkey or Grey Goose count?

Maybe to spice this up next year we should award a prize to the person who has best performed this task.

The criteria could be any or none of the following:

Worst weather conditions task completed in
Most artistic picture
Best looking bike (obviously I have skin in the game here :-))
Entertainment factor
Riskiest shot

Any more for any more.....

You should be able to nail the riskiest shot by adorning your bike with rattlers and black widows! :thumbup:

Mine is stuck in the shed, not saying my back gardens flooded but there's a little green dude dressed in rags trying to levitate an X Wing out of one of the puddles.
