“Are you in your mid-40s looking for a fun new activity? You should try mountain biking,” says a beanie-wearing man in an Instagram video evangelizing the sport but in a sarcastic way. After all, mountain biking is kind of like regular cycling in that it’s expensive, except compared to regular cycling it’s more dangerous and dirtier . . . and you’re more likely to get hurt. Sounds like the perfect fit, right? This funny video about the pros and cons of mountain biking will have you laughing.

A mountain biking shop in South Africa posted the video to Instagram, and it features Scott Losse, a comedian who does a lot of outdoorsy comedy skits. In the video, Losse makes jokes about how mountain bikers like to upgrade every part of their bikes in hopes it’ll up their game. ($150 pedals, anyone?) Losse also takes a jab at how expensive the bikes are to begin with.
And what about positives? On the up side, he says mountain biking is fun. Plus, you get to say things like “shred.” And it’s totally acceptable to drink beer in the parking lot if you’re partaking in this sport, according to Losse.
The bottomline, Losse says: “If you like being broke and sweaty, you should try mountain biking.”
