My hamstring does not cause me any pain while doing activities. I do however experience pain when stretching it a very small amount. I have been recovering from this injury for about 4 days.
 
You never want to stretch your muscles before an exercise you wait untill you are warmed up or after riding.
 
definitely do not ride a bike with a stretched hamstring. The rotary motion shortens the muscle making it even tighter. you should aim to stretch regularly, but gently. Remember RICE Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. Good luck, get well soon. hope this helps
