Glad you got it out. I used to lock my ulock onto my bike when it wasn't being used to lock the bike to a rack, and once it got stuck there, so I had to get someone to cut it off. He was worried I'd stolen the bike!

Could it have been iced up? I've had some interesting experiences trying to get into my car.
They sell some chemical lock de-icer. There's probably some lubricant you can use to prevent icing, but I don't know what it might be.

I had a very old ulock that wouldn't open. Tried Liquid Wrench and some other lubricants to no avail, but WD-40 fixed it right up.
Oil is good, grease is better.
