This program is brought to you by Suzuki and Honda.
I feel like I'm missing some tiny details here and there. But overall it's a cute wholesome story between two students who love to ride.
3.5 stars

Lovely story centered around two girls getting closer as they travel around on their bikes with good art and a gentle and non-dramatic side-taste of romance.

I love bikes/motorcycles and when I heard this book featured girls on bikes/motorcycles, I was interested. Add to that the fact that it had romance and two girls slowly growing towards each other, and I was sold. :)
Sadly, while the motorcycles/bikes are indeed overly present, the whole romance thing fell short. There was some stuff happening, but mostly it was one-sided, and in the end nothing really happened. Which is a shame.
I really liked the characters, though I liked the black-haired girl more than the blonde girl. The black-haired girl was just more down to earth, while the other girl was clumsy and a bit awkward at times.
I loved their trips with the bikes, it was gorgeous to see the bikes in action and it was fun seeing the landscapes change from city/town to more rural and eventually forests and mountains.
The illustrations were gorgeous and I really loved them. The mangaka is truly great at drawing bikes. :) Though they could make the humans look better. Especially some parts of them. For instance they sometimes have enormous buts. Which just looks strange.
I didn't particularly like the ending, I just had hoped for a more conclusive ending, with some romantic stuff happening, instead I got an open ending with nothing conclusive on whether or not they are actually together or if it is still one-sided.
Would I recommend this one? Yes, if you like bikes and like seeing 2 girls make trips on bikes.
