I take a day off occasionally, no set interval but whenever my body tells me I need a break. Usually after 3 or 4 days of 60+ miles a day. I always seem to come back stronger on the 2nd day after a break. You just have to listen to what your body tells you.
Recently I had 4 straight days without riding and I was climbing the walls with withdrawal. I really missed the endorphin high and start getting moody and irritable.
