have someone old your rear wheel or just push back on your pedals
you might get lucky and it could just pop off

you need to have track ends, i don't think it will work on a conversion with horizontal dropouts
you can also try to skid it off

Go ride ast without a lockring and start doing skip stops. Go to dentist. Cog removed. Maybe even a tooth.

glad you got it off. when i've had a stuck cog before, i sprayed some of that penetrating spray at the bikerowave (don't remember exact brand name) and let it marinade for a few mins and that helped get it off.

Dude.
If its stuck and wont come off then just fucking ride it. I
f it doesnt come off with a chain whip its prolly not gonna come off when you ride it medium anger to work.
The best way to loosen it is to take off the lockring put the wheel on the bike wiht the chainon and then stand on the backsidepedal with your full body weight. Are you sure it didnt get JB welded or something?

Were the threads greased before the cog was put on? I read some stuff online about this sort of stuff happening if you didn't grease the threads.

DONT USE GREASE ON YOUR TRACK COG!!!!
come on guys... sure you might have a lock ring... but grease?
If its on that tight (assuming its not a suicide hub via jb weld, or loctite)...
GET A TORCH.
