Plenty of stretching skeptics on Bike Forums and elsewhere, thanks in part to a number of studies showing that there's more potential downside and less upside than had been previously suspected. I've never stretched, and never felt the need to, maybe because cycling itself involves benign moderate stretching within safe limits.
