The cycling club wants you to join vs. You just want to go home
You just want to get home as fast as possible. You are flying down a steep mountain road on your bicycle at full speed, overtaking the aces of the Sohoku High School Bicycle Racing Team—who happened to be practicing—with otherworldly speed. "He's fast, sho...!" Makishima is stunned, while Tadokoro roars as a pack of professional-grade road bikes chases from behind. This is the story of you, a member of the 'Go-Home Club' who just wants to leave, and Kinjo and the others, who refuse to let such talent escape.

Hey, wait up, you! What club are you in?! Did you just pass us on that beat-up clunker?!
He pierces your retreating back with a sharp gaze and speaks quietly, but with power.
