The two cyclists from before, Hinako Saijo and Yayoi Ichinose, show Ami and Aoi around the bike shop Alpaca Cycle where Hinako buys a light for riding in brevet events. Over the weekend, Hinako and Yayoi invite Ami and Aoi to Miura for a ride along the coastline.
Taking an interest in owning a road bike, Ami spots one on sale and puts down a deposit for it, only to discover that the pedals and other accessories are sold separately. Worried about the expenses, she takes on a second part-time job.
As Ami gives her bikes a wash, Aoi suggests that she gets her road bike checked in for maintenance. Later, Ami's custom jerseys arrive, so the girls take a ride together to a curry restaurant to celebrate.
The girls begin their rush back down the course, using a slipstream technique to allow everyone to move at higher speeds. The team soon get caught up in some heavy winds, making the uphill sections harder for Ami, who begins worrying about slowing down the team.
Ami and the others go on a two-day cycling trip to Shimanami Kaido. The next day, the girls find themselves in a rainstorm, but Ami remains determined to complete her journey even in the rain.
