I'm a cyclist - I've raced on and off road, toured, worked in bike shops, I commute, I teach cycle skills to youngsters and guess what? I Also have a sense of humour! This is funny and is as good an explanation as I've heard!!
So true - we cyclists are nuts - but we love it - we choose the pain to live by ;) - dynamic, ride yourself or with others - ride out my door without starting my car - practical to cycle to work or store - slow rides to enjoy the scenery or fast to burn calories - great for thinking & removing the stress of a work day - low impact which can take one into their 90's - for developing countries a very cost-effective means of transport & survival - doesn't take up much space - easy to store - low ongoing costs - facets like these & more is how much cycling has to offer
I am triathlete and this is just as good as the ironman clip. Absolutely love this, as I continuously get stick for the amount of weightloss on an annual basis getting ready for race season, and my 4 bikes cost about the same as my wifes mommy van too (7 seater).......I also get a similar reaction whenever I talk to people that I do triathlons....
CX bike can be used as a gravel bike ;) Gotta have at least one hardcourt bike polo bike, BMX, hardtail mountain bike, full suspension MTB, mixte, track bike, randonner/touring bike, cruiser, gravity bike and a penny farthing for short trips to the shops.
I just want to save money on gas. Sure it might hurt at first, but once you get used to it it's a good way to do some light grocery shopping. Faster than walking, and WAY cheaper than driving every time you need to pick up something.
I refer to myself as a cyclist just so it's clear that I don't ride a motorcycle. But for me it's just transportation. "Can you believe how high gas is getting?" "I don't care." :) Bow drivers, BOW DOWN TO YOUR OIL TYCOON OVERLORDS! hahahaha.
Word bro. I'd rather support American bicycle companies, American "AeroTechDesigns" cycling clothes, German Continental cycling tires, Italian saddles & Shoes,,, than put one damned red American penny into an enemy oil wells in god damned terrorist hell... You can quote me on that Sir!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This cracks me the hell up! Everyone thinks I'm a weirdo because I have an expensive Cannondale road bike, a hybrid, and a retro cruiser, and recently sold a mountain bike... but no car!!! If I sold these bikes I'd probably be able to buy a car.
A funny thing is that in Denmark "cyklister/cyclists" are people who just ride on an everyday basis while "cykelryttere/bikeriders" are people who ride bikes for sport... Which basically makes almost ALL of of "cyclists"...
I completed my first century ride at 16 with a heavy steel road bike; crank was not the smoothest. An upgrade would be cool. However I believe its not all about being skinny but rather both having strong quads yet not excessive musculature and eating properly. I cycle because the vast majority of people do not, Its a form of staying fit for other sports such as soccer, a life style and a form of transportation.
Well, I have to say that he is a "wierd" cyclist... Suffering and feeling pain is part of the race and training, but unless he is a masochistic, what makes cycling so enjoyable is because you can have so much fun riding your bike...
"Because they make my legs scream in agony while my heart beats so fast it feels like I'm going to have a heart attack" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Does anyone recall seeing on like this where the guy wants a expensive bike like hers? I remember they were the same characters but sitting down. It's a reach I know.. but been trying to stumble upon that one again for years now
Its true many people like buying bike stuff more than actual cycling. All the gear no idea. It happens in most sports. One of the reasons I swapped to running, less posers.
6:40 "so let me get this straight to be a cyclist, it requires that you shut off the part of the brain that provides you with all your common sense" so so true
I tell people bike riders ride Harley Davidson's witch is why we are cyclists. Plus cyclists don't use air quotes when they say cyclist. This is very funny. Thanks.
I think hes talking about the release of endorphines that people get when they excersize. Hince why he likes it. Also Owning a bike is cheaper then owning a house/car. No taxes, gasoline, ALOT less maitenance.
you can develope more power through training and outrun a lighter cyclist with lesser pedaling power... i've dropped alot of cyclist being lighter or heavier than me just because my legs were more used to intense effort and had more power, and i knew how to control my gears according to what speed i wanted to reach
I love the video...BUT I would love it more if the cyclist was a little bit heavier. There are many amateur who share the same passion but are not as fit as the guy in the video. The passion for cycling has nothing to do with the weight of the rider :-)
@Dandy1ion - Sorry, can't help you out on the food bill. I haven't eaten for months, got to save for my next grossly expensive bike. On the up side, I've lost a lot of weight.
Right everyone that doesn't cycle always says your crazy for spending that much money on a bicycle! But how much is their bar tab, dirt bike ( that they can only ride once in a while), wave runner, sports car, I can ride my bike anytime , any where
5:11 "My skin gets so thin, my veins look like the road map of France" HAHAHA

Absolutely brilliant! Next time someone asks what I do with my spare time, I'll just refer them here...
Now you need an aero road, a CX bike, a commuter bike, and climbing bike and a beater bike lol
+Jared Fontaine are you unfamiliar with the n+1 Rule? (n being the number of bikes you currently own)
CX bike can be used as a gravel bike ;)
Gotta have at least one hardcourt bike polo bike, BMX, hardtail mountain bike, full suspension MTB, mixte, track bike, randonner/touring bike, cruiser, gravity bike and a penny farthing for short trips to the shops.
Don't forget an e-bike so your non-cyclist family can keep up with you out on Saturday rides!
It's really funny, but in real life, people wouldn't talk to you for nearly that long about your crazy addiction called cycling ;)
haha! true. i see people glaze over after about 10 seconds. :)
Endure pain while cycling may be the most important experience. Never thought of it before watching this video
"cyclists are skinnier than a heroine addict on a diet"
Lmao wow
A Nonymous I call bull. too many of them have beer gutsXD
Liz Huck this is true though I don't know how. I'm a month into my cycling season and lost 7lbs already of my winter fat
Not sprinters
I just want to save money on gas. Sure it might hurt at first, but once you get used to it it's a good way to do some light grocery shopping. Faster than walking, and WAY cheaper than driving every time you need to pick up something.
not if we were on bikes... you would never catch me.
this is the truth. Probably one of the funniest things I've ever watched
Only 10 grand? May I show you my new MTB? Roadies be crazy!
I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike...
I want to ride my BICYCLE! BICYCLE!
I never get tired of this one!
The best video I've ever watched!!
Does nobody get the dry humor? Must everything be laid out by bad actors. Do people have no imagination?
Awesome video, because I am a cyclist.
I am a cycling super freak,lol
"but usually you receive a cheap water bottle and t-shirt that I use to clean my bike" so true
I like conversations where people talk like normal people. So it's not trash talk. It's realistic and makes it funnier than it would be without.
Shit. I think she's RIGHT...we're e'ffing NUTS...might sell my bikes!
J Just J Give them to me...
This is just me talking to one of my friends. And he said has someone recorded our conversations.😂
Very helpful for my wife to understand that I am a cyclist.
I refer to myself as a cyclist just so it's clear that I don't ride a motorcycle. But for me it's just transportation. "Can you believe how high gas is getting?" "I don't care." :) Bow drivers, BOW DOWN TO YOUR OIL TYCOON OVERLORDS! hahahaha.

Karl Ruehs not one penny? oil is used to make bicycles.
I've lost track of how many times I've had this conversation with the cylistically impaired. Funny and true.
This cracks me the hell up! Everyone thinks I'm a weirdo because I have an expensive Cannondale road bike, a hybrid, and a retro cruiser, and recently sold a mountain bike... but no car!!! If I sold these bikes I'd probably be able to buy a car.
All the negative comments are obviously from non-cyclists!
The guy speaks the complete truth!!
As a cyclist, I love this!
Epic win! I need to find more, i remember the iphone cartoon one where the character keeps asking the person why they want it, freakin hilarious!
Funny as hell but honest truth to this humorous dialog between the two. Well done lol.
This is true lol.
A funny thing is that in Denmark "cyklister/cyclists" are people who just ride on an everyday basis while "cykelryttere/bikeriders" are people who ride bikes for sport...

This is one of the most hilarious animations I've ever seen!
106kph! I've only done 50 kph and thought I was going to die.
He is " a cyclist" and would be welcome in our club.
This gave me a chuckle. I agree with him.
I'm not a cyclist, but as a competitive rower, this hits the nail right on the head hahaha
Bloody excellent!!! Thanks- I am working towards being a cyclist

"I mean this in the nicest way .. but you are f...ing nuts!" love it
I just like pushing myself physically and mentally therefore I ride and the side affect of this? being fit and healthy!
I ride my road bike everyday and have crashed numerous times, one was a wipeout ending in the ER.
I'm a "cyclist" and I'm not thinner then a heroine addict on a crash diet? My legs are fecking huge.....excellent :-)
I am down to to 200 from 250 and am still looking to 190, but I hear regular complaints that I'm too thin as it is. I can relate.
"rides to suffer and feel excruciating pain" it's so true . I hate hills but seek them out LOL
Well, I have to say that he is a "wierd" cyclist... Suffering and feeling pain is part of the race and training, but unless he is a masochistic, what makes cycling so enjoyable is because you can have so much fun riding your bike...
I am a "Cyclist", and I LOVE this video!!
Hey, it's a good start, but like some comments here, should keep it short like 2-3 min ;-)
i just had this conversation with 3 of my co workers omg....they think i'm crazy.
I'm a cyclist. The furthest I have gone in one day is about 28 miles, or 44kms.
What a lovely celeste tie!
I own three bicycles and I am not a cyclist. Merely a cycling enthusiast.
"Because they make my legs scream in agony while my heart beats so fast it feels like I'm going to have a heart attack" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
we should all aspire to be this man
Does anyone recall seeing on like this where the guy wants a expensive bike like hers? I remember they were the same characters but sitting down. It's a reach I know.. but been trying to stumble upon that one again for years now
those two should get oscars for best actor and actress
It's bizarre, but suffering up a big hill and screaming down the other side at high speeds is fun. I think it's the endorphin rush and I'm nuts!
I fucking love this video.
Never gets old...
Its true many people like buying bike stuff more than actual cycling. All the gear no idea. It happens in most sports. One of the reasons I swapped to running, less posers.
For some reason, listening to a robot say the f-word is kind of entertaining.
love it,,,,
Guy's about as bright as burnt-out light bulb during a total eclipse
Good job
punch line would have been a lot funnier if you had left it at "I jump out of airplanes"
I've never heard anyone say 'bike rider'. I've heard people say 'ride a bike' but everyone I know says cyclist.
6:40 "so let me get this straight to be a cyclist, it requires that you shut off the part of the brain that provides you with all your common sense"
so so true
That'll make me a 'bike rider' then! lol So funny! Liked!
i only downhill mountian bike. my bike is about 3-4 Grand. mountian opens in 3 days cant wait!!
Not sure about the throwing up part but the rest of it I can say was funny.
@3:52 you know, that's a damn good question.
I jump out of airplanes...lol..Awesome video man!
I tell people bike riders ride Harley Davidson's witch is why we are cyclists. Plus cyclists don't use air quotes when they say cyclist. This is very funny. Thanks.
a mexican guy just won one of the hardets races on an overweight 20year old bike,
I think hes talking about the release of endorphines that people get when they excersize. Hince why he likes it. Also Owning a bike is cheaper then owning a house/car. No taxes, gasoline, ALOT less maitenance.
@RedheadDane - and given how many bikes there are in Denmark, you guys should know
I have a friend that is deaths and would absolutely love this- do you have a transcript or subtitles?? Please??
i've really enjoyed the conversation...
you can develope more power through training and outrun a lighter cyclist with lesser pedaling power... i've dropped alot of cyclist being lighter or heavier than me just because my legs were more used to intense effort and had more power, and i knew how to control my gears according to what speed i wanted to reach
All too true.Any "cyclist" who complains can't handle the truth - my wife was it hysterics laughing at me.
I love the air quotes! :D
Outstanding! :-)
My uncle is a cyclist, this is 100% accurate.
I love the video...BUT I would love it more if the cyclist was a little bit heavier. There are many amateur who share the same passion but are not as fit as the guy in the video. The passion for cycling has nothing to do with the weight of the rider :-)
Yes it does. Body mass is inversely proportional to cycling passion
@Dandy1ion - Sorry, can't help you out on the food bill. I haven't eaten for months, got to save for my next grossly expensive bike. On the up side, I've lost a lot of weight.
This is great!!
hilarious... but then I have the staying power to watch the whole thing because I am a "cyclist"
I mean this in the nicest way... but you are fucking nuts! Absolutely love that part :P
This explains it perfectly!!
Gold!!! And I too am a "cyclist"
I'm a cyclist and i love when my legs scream of agony...
..not IF we were on bikes. Brilliant
And don't forget the throwing up part.
Fun to watch! (so true)
@OtherVincentLee - I'm sure they don't, however, used cars do.
I thought I was a cyclist. Guess I'm just a bike rider. , but 50 km isn't that much. Thit's running errands.
Pure epicness!
@aayevents - that's the point. We're all nuts.
Right everyone that doesn't cycle always says your crazy for spending that much money on a bicycle!
But how much is their bar tab, dirt bike ( that they can only ride once in a while), wave runner, sports car, I can ride my bike anytime , any where
"All your bikes, are belong to us"
