Before the race, Captain Teshima told Sakamichi that he wouldn’t be the mountain ace at this Inter-High so the team could focus on taking out Hakone Academy’s formidable climber Manami early during their first attack. However, in order to close the unexpected gap created by Izumida’s sprint, Teshima sacrifices himself and pulls the team. The passionate vibrations of every step he takes forward reach not only Sakamichi and the rest of Team Sohoku but Hakone Academy ace Ashikiba as well…!
He was never a logical rider. 
He rides based on feel.
Eigentlich fährt er nämlich
nicht mit Verstand,
Nunca fue un ciclista racional.
Corre de forma intuitiva.
Nunca fue un ciclista racional.
Corre de forma intuitiva.
Il se fie pas à sa raison quand il roule,
mais plutôt à ses sensations.
Non è mai stato un ciclista razionale,
lui corre seguendo l'istinto.
Ele nunca foi um ciclista lógico.
Ele pedala na intuição.
Он никогда не был логичным человеком. 
Всегда одни эмоции.
