Simply split the layer in suitable segments and remove the expression from the hold section. Keep it simple!

With loopOut, I usually specify the number of keyframes to loop, so for a standard continuous loop, I'd use looOut("cycle",2), if i wanted to add a pause, I'd add a third keyframe, same value as the second, and set the expression to be loopOut("cycle",3).  AE should then run the loop, wait for the time length inbetween keyframes 2 and 3 and then start the loop again.

 

I'm not sure what the path expression is doing in this situation though.
