I ran over a groundhog around mile 7. Front wheel went over fine but I bent the back wheel to the point where it did a slight rub on the left brake pad each time the bent area came around. I loosened the brakes a bit but it still got the rub. So the other 14 miles were spent riding as if I was tapping the brakes one each time my wheel turned. Now I have to ride back into work tomorrow (where my bike is) and see if I can get a wheel trued in a reasonable amount of time.
I bet the groundhog is even less please about the situation than you!
