    Turning the bike upsidedown made it easier when I did this. A cup of tea, lots of wiggling and plenty of patience. Sorry not to be more helpful but I hope you can get it unstuck.

    Turning the pedals while bike is turned upside down often works for me.

    Well, I got it fixed. The pedals could not be turned at all whatsoever, so that didn't work. I ended up taking it to the LBS and the nice guy working there told me the derailleur was the problem. He clicked the shifter and voila, it was fixed. I felt pretty dumb as it took about 5 seconds for him to diagnose and fix. Oh well, at least I know now!
