In school, all I ever did was study, go to class and work out during the off season and play ball, work out, try to study and go to as little class as I could during the season.
I'm sure for people like you who were good enough to compete in college it's easy to reach a point where you won't get better than you were. That point likely comes right after college. Do you find though that when you pick up something new (ie cycling for you) that you can make gains continuously and stay interested?
