Watch Over Drive
An anime series with road biking central to the plot. It's about a teenage boy with no self esteem who falls for a girl who is the sister of the school cycling club. She recruits him to the club, and he progresses from barely able to hold upright on a bike, to a prodigy of speed, with eventual aspirations for the Tour De France. Hilarious and inspiring to watch, especially with a group of fellow cyclists. If you like animation and bicycles you must feel the magic of Over Drive!
"I want to tell you, even if it's just once, about the blooming impact."
(translation from opening song)

correction: Meant to say sister of the school cycling club captain.

I found a
website with high rez downloads of episodes, and you tube links, as well as covering the show up to episode 23. After watching some of the Cycling Club's first big race since Shinozaki (main character) joined, I felt really pumped up about biking.
So I took advantage of a break in the weather to ride as hard as I could to Marina Del Rey and back before rain started again. Drops started falling on my way back, but the wind blowing the storm toward me was blowing the same direction as home, so I beat the rain about 3 minutes before it started pouring at my house. Ah, the joys of racing cars down Lincoln Blvd.

I want them NOW! Ahhhhh. At least I finally saw 24, that cliff hanger at the end of 23 was torturous.

Don't fret, I have really fast internet at home, and with the downloads I set up last night, I now have the entire series all the way to the last episode animated (ep 26), in full rez. I'm going to convert them into mp2 and make them into a playable dvd soon with each episode as a chapter. I'll bring a couple copies to the ALC fund raising meeting.
