Creating cycles: how long on and off?
The world is abound with information regarding dosages,
loading and maintenance. But how long should you be
taking creatine, and how long away? I am not finding
any information about this.

Good luck
I gathered the following key points from the video:
* No detrimental effects have been observed during non-stop usage
* The body's ability to cease creatine production has not been observed
and is mentioned mainly as a precautionary warning
* Studies do not exist regarding the benefits or disadvantages of cycling
* The choice to cycle is largely preferential
* If cycling is chosen a hiatus of at least 30 days is recommended
I also stumped across this article: Effects of Repeated Creatine Supplementation on Muscle, Plasma, and Urine Creatine Levels.
