For each muscle there are many examples of effective stretches. Pick stretches that work for you.
Develop a routine based on your stretches which cover all major muscle groups, e.g., start with your neck working down to your ankles or reverse the order. This makes it easier to remember the stretches thus ensuring you haven’t forgotten a stretch.
Stretching is static and not dynamic and should be pain free.
Ideally, try to stretch before and after a ride or race for 15 minutes. I said, "Try" since I’m as guilty as the next person in not stretching.
Try stretching while watching the tube if you miss the before and after
If all else fails try the Sun Salute, which includes the muscles used in cycling. This is a short routine I like to use which has been very effective for me. Besides, if you are seen doing this before a race you may psych the competition.
