I don't stretch regularly. Sometimes in the evenings my legs feel stiff and I'll stretch then. Oh, and I'll stop on stairs and stretch because I love that feeling. Is that weird?

I'm not a regular commuter at this time (but used to be and hope to be again) - but I used to feel that same "tight but not painfully so" feeling. I started doing a couple of simple stretches at the bike racks before heading in to my desk, and it helped a lot. They were just a quads stretch, calf stretch, then touch my toes. That was enough for my <5 mile commute.
