One Off
Shiozaki Haruno and her friends Bessho Anri and Kaburagi Sayo enjoy effortlessly riding to school through the hilly countryside on their fetching scooters, much to Maezono Rie's dismay, who has to go by bicycle.
Once Rie turns sixteen she vows to get her own license though.
One day Haruno's parents, who own the Niwa Café and a motorcycle repair shop, employ a lively motorcyclist from Australia, Cynthia B. Rogers, to help out.
The often daydreaming Haruno only knows the country life, but is fascinated by Cynthia's motorcycle exploits in various countries, and slowly begins to be less pessimistic about a more adventurous future.

Having been told by Haruno's friends about how she used to be more optimistic, Cynthia decides to take Haruno on a nighttime ride to the beach, where she reminds her to strive and push her limits.
