I know yoga has gotten increasingly popular, but I'm not ready to make a fool of myself publicly yet.

Is there a good book worth picking up, or maybe a website, that has good stretches that are cycling specific or cycling related? I think I'd see huge gains from increased flexibility.

I have an older version of this one. The reviews speak for themselves. Search stretching in books if you want to review more options.

I started yoga about 4 weeks ago and I can tell a difference. Ask about the class and find an instructor who suits your needs and go from there. Everybody starts from somewhere, just find the right class and go for it.
