 What do I do?? I tried move forwards & backwards but it just stuck there. Im
 in a garage(a very tight one) so it's hard to maneuvre at all...I also took
it
 out of gear to try to push it out and to see if a gear's gone funky,
nope...it
 still stayed.
 Is it possible to loosed the brake cable enough to let it go? PB handle
 doesn't come up as much as it used to also...some adjustment foul up??

 I'll hang on line to get any help you guys can give me...

 Take the wheel off that side and hit the drum with a hammer and it should
free up. Let us know. Michael.
