Why you need time to rest is simple, one you need to let your own hormones bounce back and let your body rest from synethetic hormones and two being on longer doesnt mean more gains since like I mentioned before the gains start slowing due to a rise in catabolic and muscle limiting hormones. So takign a break saves you cash and has your primed for your next cycle while giving your body a rest.
Personally the seven weeks your taking off will limit your gains somewhat and how much you keep during PCT is all dependent on PCT/diet/genetics.
At the rate you are going, you will probably be on HRT by late 20's
