Sweet Matt. Wiggins so sexy speaking Japanese (not to mention those schoolgirl skirts..) and the steel clunker that turns into a carbon Pinarello. Great pre-coffee fantasy stuff for another hard day behind the desk.

You've got to be quick with these interweb thingees!

Here's the official site - click on the red "EN" button at the top to see the English subtitled version.

And while I'm at it, here's a link to another great cycling anime: Nasu, Summer in Andalusia

It's about a domestique racing in la Vuelta. Got some great racing scenes and the tactics are spot on (with a little bit of dramatic licence).

It's split into three 15-minute clips - don't worry about the annoying pop-up ads, just click on the "full-screen" button on the vids and they go away. Just watched it with my two boys (9 and 13) and we all really enjoyed it.

They worked okay when I just clicked on them then, so maybe it is Tapatalk?
