The Sohoku High School Bicycle Racing Club has concluded their fierce battle at the Inter-High. First year Onoda Sakamichi and his classmates Imaizumi and Naruko switch to new bikes and are preparing for new battles on a team without the third-years. Sohoku's new captain Teshima and his friend Aoyagi also begin working towards a second consecutive championship. As they prepare, Sakamichi's idol Makishima has some words for him...
When you think of it that way,
we can race anytime.
Du kannst dich also
immer mit mir messen.
Si lo piensas así,
siempre podremos competir.
Si lo piensas así,
siempre podremos competir.
Si on réfléchit comme ça,
on s’affronte tout le temps.
In questo senso, 
possiamo affrontarci in qualsiasi momento.
Ou seja, sempre podemos disputar corrida.
