This ride sucked, I ended up walking a fourth of the way because my back tire started rubbing. I didn't find and fix the problem until I was almost home.

What happened? A bent rim?

It was weird. I was pulling off from a red light, so I was pedaling hard and I heard something snap and it was immediately difficult to pedal. At first glance I really couldn't see anything visibly wrong so I just started walking. When I got to a parking lot I started to investigate a little more and noticed that my back wheel was loose and every time I put pressure on my pedals it would just slant and start rubbing up against my frame. Somehow when I took off, it loosened the right side nut that holds my back wheel on and that was causing it to lean/tilt to the left. So I just tightened it back up and started riding again. I rode home on it and it was just fine. Weird.
