Long Riders!

Falling in love at first sight with a collapsible bicycle outside the station, Ami Kurata, first-year university student empties her account without a second thought and buys the bicycle. Now she enjoys weekend cycling trips with Aoi, her childhood friend, and Hinako, a senior at her university. "Owning a road bike may change your view of the world completely." Prompted by the comment, Ami purchased a road bike, and she is really impressed with the traveling performance. As soon as she places her feet on the pedals and presses down, everything about riding a road bicycle—the lightness of the pedal, the speed, the acceleration—is nothing like she has ever experienced. Ami's cycle life gets going with the new road cycle as her partner!

Story: i mean there really is no story honestly to this anime ami is walking to college one time when she sees a random person riding on a bike and then she gets the sudden will to try and start cycling and after that she will easily learn about how to maintain a bike and certain stuff about bikes and stuff like that and that's about it.

Art: Ok so ill first start and say that the CGI here isn't the best but it isn't that bad either could have definitely been a lot better (even though i don't care how the art looks) but still ... it good have been better as for the art overall its really good and not the bad or terrible.

Sound: now ill say here (before i say something about the OP and ED) the Voice actress here were really good here but i could see how they could kinda be annoying (with the characters not shiting on the voice actress at all) but some of the character can kinda get annoying but not to that point but yeah as for the Op and Ed they were both good but nothing id download though.

Characters: Yayoi is one of the main female leads and well like what someone said she pretty much the large breasted girl here in the anime she (like most to all the girls in the anime) have the happy attitude to them. Ami is another of the female leads (considered to be the actual legit main) is well a pretty happy go lucky but is usually overwhelmed a lot and what not when she learns new stuff about bikes and what not basically ami in a nutshell. Aoi is another female lead and well again mostly happy and go lucky and Ami's best friend (she of course gets more friends but at the start of the anime she is probably her only friend) again like most she does kinda get embarrassed here and the like all the girls here but again all of them are good. Hinako is another female lead and well she can kinda be abrasive (its not the bad but like to a extent she can be) and like the rest just a happy go lucky person. Saki is the last female lead and well she is a pretty hungry person and (and also shows up a little later in the anime) again another happy person nothing more.

Enjoyment: What i liked: i mean the comedy is here (not as much) but when it was it was really good and also the for being enjoyable it was really (even though i don't cycle it was still enjoyable to watch) also learning about different stuff when it comes to bikes and how to be prepared for certain stuff when dealing with your bike was really interesting. What i didn't like: ok so the comedy here wasn't really there if at all again the few spots it did have comedy it was really good but again comedy wasn't there as much and also the CGI isn't the greatest either here probably my only real complaints with the anime.

Overall: im giving this a 7 ( i probably would have giving this a 8 if the comedy here was there and was really good) but again comedy is decent at best also if your into cycling or not you'll still enjoy this anime as did i its a anime that is worth the watch for sure.

"Let's enjoy cycling!" - the catchphrase on the title of this anime. It actually describes pretty accurately what you can expect from Long Riders!
With beautiful visual, relaxing atmosphere and cute girls this anime promises you a trip around the beautiful Japanese landscape. The story primarily focuses on giving you the best introduction to what cycling for fun is like and it did it pretty well at least in my opinion. I enjoyed the hell out of this anime.

You can actually call an anime successful if it gets you interested in the topic it presents - this time it is cycling and to be honest ...

Mixed Feelings

I watched Long Riders. Here are my thoughts:

Overall low-budget visuals. Which is kind of a shame because this is the kind of show that would benefit tremendously from high visual production value. Crude CGI is frequently used during the biking scenes, and in general there are many 'quality' moments. For the record, I watched the Blurays.

I was happy to see that a decent amount of attention was paid to technical aspects of biking. It did feel like the creators actually did cycling as a hobby. That kind of authenticity is a major plus in my mind. Serious performance cycling has always seemed like an interesting ...
