Teshima and Aoyagi win their sprint race against Kyoto Fushimi and rejoin their team. Sakamichi enjoys racing with all six of his team members, but it doesn’t last long. Aoyagi’s legs, which have been pulling the team with all their might in order to catch up to Hakone Academy, have been in pain since the previous day and are nearing their limit. Kaburagi can’t hold back his tears as he watches the upperclassman’s back. By taking on Aoyagi’s hopes and racing for the team, Kaburagi experiences great personal growth of his own.
We carry on the hopes of our teammates 
and let our riding do the talking.
Indem wir fahren, …
Llevamos las esperanzas de compañeros
y dejamos que las bicicletas hablen.

Hériter d’un état d’esprit
Corriamo con le speranze dei nostri compagni, 
e lasciamo che siano i pedali a parlare.
Nós conversamos pelos nossos pedais,
e carregamos a esperança uns dos outros.
Мы несём в будущее мечты других,
говорим делами вместо слов.
