I took a lack-of-bike-parts-and "too hot and dusty" mtb break this summer and really woodshedded with my guitars. I just rode yesterday for the first time in a month and it was great even though I rode like a total kook. I have also been on a similar trajectory of doing stuff I never thought I would do on a bike over the last few years and I feel like little breaks (a month was too long) like this help me forget certain bad habits. For example I had been struggling with an almost pathological foot out on right handers but didnt do it once yesterday and didnt even think about it until the car ride home.
