Ep. 12: Sepeda motor Sohoku menghadapi pelatihan 1000 km yang sulit dengan sepeda modifikasi di fasilitas Hakone

12

Sohoku heads to a special cycling facility in the Mountains above Hakone. Onoda gets sick on the way and is let out of the van to wait for the coach in the car. While waiting Onoda decides to get some water until he realizes he has left his wallet in the van. Manami arrives shortly after and offers him his water bottle. Instead of taking his water bottle back, Manami tells Onoda to keep it. When Onoda arrives at the camp, Kinjo breaks out special training for the first and second years that are there. They must complete 1000 km to be eligible to participate in the Inter High within four days' time. However adjustments have been made to Naruko's, Imaizumi's, and Onoda's bikes. Naruko must complete the 1000 km without his lower handlebars. Imaizumi must complete the 1000 km without his gear shifters. Onoda isn't told what his special training is, but old heavy tires have been subbed out on his bike that will force him to adjust his cycling style. These three seniors, two second-years (Teshima and Aoyagi), and Sugimoto also participate in the special training, all without any modifications to their bikes. With a little help from Makishima, Onoda is able to learn how it'll be easier for him to ride, but the changes give Onoda a large deficit in terms of laps covered, and he's not sure he'll be able to master the training before time runs out.
