On the third skid that damned "Yakkety Sax" music started playing in my head again as I pedaled furiously to screw the cog back on before I went down.
No No No. You're going to get hurt this way, somehow, sometime. You might also toast the threads on your hub. Either give up on the fun of skidding or buy a cheap wheel with a dbl threaded fitting for cog+lockring.
