I hadn't thought of this but I utterly understand it from past lives:

- General photography fatigue, cycling photos is just a flavor of this, and photography for work is way way less fun than photography for fun

- Motorcycle group rides where smokers had to stop seemingly every 30 minutes to smoke. Inevitably one of them would be Mr. Macho and the stories were amusing at first and then got tiring.

- Cycling group rides where you start questioning why the overwhelmingly kid-free group wants to stop for a 3rd-ish coffee and pastry on a century-ish ride when you've gotta get home cause you have a family.

Anything can get old when you turn it into your job!
