Junta Teshima

He is now a third year student at Souhoku High School, the former ace, Shingo Kinjou, appointed him as the ace of the cycling club, and he takes his role very seriously.

He is very smart and uses strategies to win races along with his close friend Aoyagi. He and Aoyagi decided to work together since they are both "average cyclists" who share the same dream of reaching the top. He is very supportive of Souhoku's cycling team as he helps to supply the team with water and energy food as part of the support team during the Inter High. Teshima believes in his teammates, and encourages others (particularly Sugimoto) to believe in them as well. (Source: Yowamushi Pedal Wiki)
