When I duck walk I just use a lightweight leash and walk slightly ahead of and to the right of the duck. When crossing a highway allow plenty of time.

Nobody likes it, but how can you avoid it? Sometimes you just gotta do the walk.

Default Duck walking
I really try to avoid duck walking on my harley but I think it's alot of fun to do when walking into a Walmart store.

I always wonder just how far are they going to walk that bike. Seems that some people don't want to lift their feet up and go. Hard for me not to start quacking at them----like calling ducks.
