Yeah, I keep thinking about this but forget it until I'm already in my car...and have such hip tightness when I get home that stretching isn't a good option. So I NEED to do this - perhaps a big sticky note on my steering wheel So hips aren't related to calves, but I've so blasted much symmetrical arthritis that it is what it is. I'm bound and determined to stay active - and I love hiking. Well, right now I love whatever I can do that doesn't hurt much
