Is peak charging a Lipo considered 1 cycle?
 
After a race I usually charge some of my lipos to see the per min mah draw.

Then I will leave it for awhile before my next race. But before my race I will peak charge them.

Is it considered 1 cycle?

not reallly. one cycle is usually a charge and discharge (or viseversa)

In your case it seems that 1 race = 1 cycle

No need to "peak" a lipo... charged is charged.

^ they will hold full voltage for many weeks and months.

A123 cells loose their peak voltage after a day or so, but to re-peak them takes only a few minutes & mah.
