Ride 858: Manami and Sugimoto
1: Two people who were never supposed to meet
They get to meet at the Inter High!!
That's right. Since we've come all the way here.... uhm, Sugi...
1: I heard you entered the race all of a sudden yesterday, like fifteen minutes before the start?
Ah, yeah, yeah, that's right
Waaa, he started talking so easily! It's the first time I'm talking to him!!
2: He- he knows my story, that makes me happy
3: So you prepared hard in advance
Ah, no, I was a reserve, this was unexpected
It comes to people who have properly prepared themselves
6: What's this!? It makes me so happy!? I'm so happy
I'm suddenly being complimented!!
You- you really think so!?
1: By the guy who won ….. the first day's mountain staged colored bib
The fastest guy on the mountain!!
2: Hakogaku's captain, Manami Sangaku!!
3: And you placed eighth yesterday
5: No no no, that's just... I just held on and ran!!
He even knows my results!?
6: Just being able to be in the lead is amazing
2: S-stop, I can't help but smile, even though... we're in a race!!
3: That's right, I can't!!
I left my joy behind yesterday!!
4: We shared our joy together with the team, yesterday, and then it was over
Being too relaxed won't allow me to face difficult situations
6: So I walked into this new day with a different mindset
1: That today is only about today's race!!
2: Let's run to the best of our abilities today, too, to the best of our abilities!!
2: You placed even higher than me
3: But actually, actually, that's right
But that has nothing to do with our difference in skills, I know that
4: It happens a lot in road racing that the cyclists who aren't the ace cross the finis late later than other... it happens a lot, yeah
1: And yet, I don't know why, I'm getting so excited and so happy!!
2: My forehead is getting hot
3: Before the Inter High, when I came to Minegayama for an inspection...
1: Once we reached the peak, we talked
2: We talked about... how hard it was to choose the team members
4: Back then, Sakamichi-kun said
6: There are a lot of people I would like to run in the team
He said that if he could he'd switch with them, and that it's tough that there's are only six spots available
And he talked about someone who never took rest from practice and worked so hard for three years....
1: A kind-hearted and hard-worker guy he really wanted to run in the Inter High
But, I'm so grateful, so grateful really
6: That's why I thought maybe I shouldn't talk directly, but
2: The fact that you're in the selected team and running for the Inter High
3: And the fact that yesterday... you placed eighth
1: I think that makes him happier than anyone
1: Really? Onoda really said that?
2: No no, he said “I think” so that's not sure, of course
4: But if it's true it really does make me happy
5: I'll ask him when these three days of race are over
7: By the way, how is Teshima-san doing?
8: Last year we had a gret fight on the first day on Irohazaka
1: I was taking a tea break!!
2: He was strong... an indomitable spirit who kept coming back, no matter how many times you threw him down
3: Ah, he cam to see us at our training camp this year!
4: I was asleep, but Onoda and the first years met him
Teshima-san... he must be an amazing guy
5: They told me who had an umbrella and had come by car, and I think he drove there himself, since he's in university
1: And he brought us donuts
Yeah, those were nice calories!
2: Is he here to cheer for you on this Inter High? Did he come?
4: Yeah!! He sent us a message the day before yesterday...
5: The flat is almost over, what do we do!?
6: Yuzukoshi-kun and Tobirama-kun, switch, and Bashi-kun get behind everyone else, thanks
1: They changed their positions
2: The climb will start!!
3: And after a short while we'll reunite
Reunite with the leading pack!!
4: We talked for so long!! Until here!!
5: Thanks for the “talk”!!
I had a good time!! Really!!
1: Today is only about today's race!!
3: The following Hakogaku group is entering the climb!!
There's one more person with them
1: There's something I forgot to tell you
Could we talk while climbing?
3: Well, for you it would be no problem, since you're a climber
4: I mean, I'll gladly listen
5: Actually, I've always been curious about it.... but I thought it would be a bit too much to ask...
3: When he won the Inter High
