I was riding on my road bike along the canal in Ottawa (not on the MUP...on the road...) when out of nowhere a duck flew into my front wheel...scared the crap out of me and it was just like in the cartoons with a huge explosion of feathers. The duck seemed to be OK and just walked it off and I was in shock, lol. Spent the next 15 minutes plucking feathers off my derailleur and out of my cassette... Thank god my front wheel didn't suffer any damage and thank god it wasn't one of those 60 pound Canada geese, that would have knocked me right over.

Anyways, doesn't really count as roadkill, but it was pretty damn close.
