I think the Roadblock is to use the collared rats to make safe passage through a mine field.

Maybe some useful info here? http://www.distant.ca/UselessFacts/fact.asp?ID=215African Gambian Pouch rats, also known as the African giant pouch rat are the largest rats in the world. They grow to 13-17 inches from tip of nose to the base of the tail and the tail is about the same length or longer. They can be more than six pounds. They live in forests and thickets in from Senegal to Central Sudan and down to South Africa. From wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambian_Pouch_Rat |

Here is an article. African rat sniffs out Mozambique landmines
A giant African rat has become man's second best friend as it joins forces with the dog to sniff out landmines in Mozambique.
The Belgian de-mining research group APOPO has eight of the rodents working alongside dogs and metal detectors on a minefield in Mozambique's coastal town of Vilanculos, some 650 kilometres north-east of the capital Maputo. [attachment deleted by admin] |

The Apopo site is interesting; no mention of TAR I could find, but all the rat videos, rat pictures, Hero the rat mascot, and rat news you could want. Even with the flack jackets, I can't believe the producers would expose the racers to any real danger. Maybe it's an "amazing" minefield. |

I think they showed a confessional of the guidos from this episode in episode four, because they were wearing the same yellow shirts.

Since we believe that the pitstop is going to be at the fort in Maputo, is it possible that there are some additional giant rats working elsewhere nearer to Maputo?

I only see one member of each team wearing the body armor, and the card Mirna is holding looks red, so maybe a Roadblock. Some info on the search string from the Apopo site: The rat is guided by a search string, which is connected between its two trainers. The rat moves systematically up and down the search string, processing lane by lane through the suspected box. Both trainers take position at opposite sides of the box in the safe lane, fixing the search string to the lower leg. When a rat reaches the end of the box, the operators make a lateral step, and the rat moves into the next lane. A box or lane system provides the safe access lanes for the trainers. APOPO is using 5 by 20 meter boxes, which means that the rat has to search 40 lanes of half a meter to clear one box. [attachment deleted by admin] |

ROADBLOCK sure looks like the Rat Race. We see Charla, Ian, Eric, Kandice (?) wearing the protective clothing and Danny, Joyce, a BQ all watching together. Danny has Roadblock red banner clue in his hand. Also looks like many of the teams are doing the task together.
'
Also looks like a little sliding on a glacier in Argentina before departing for Africa.

Thoughts/Info on latest preview pics (thanks puddin!): Joe spraying himself with the perfume, or some hair product... due to the possible layover the Guidos got in Ushuaia, as indicated in the spoiler? Mammut labeled device used for avalanche rescue. Possibly getting a clue from within the snow of the glacier/mountain/wherever they were here? Giving pedicure as a possible, and very wierd detour? Whilst the other detour is the henna tattoo one (assuming it's here)? [attachment deleted by admin] |

We just saw glacier scenes in the preview of Episode 5. Episode 4 contained an unexpected 16 hour rest stop. I believe that the 36 hour rest stop we had predicted is now out the window. The most logical place for glaciers is in the Chilean portion of Tierra del Fuego National Park, which they are close to while staying on Isla Redonda in the Argentinian portion of that park. I predict that the glacier scenes will take up the entire following day (Nov. 27) and that somehow Joe and Bill get behind the rest enough to miss the Nov. 28 morning flight to Buenos Aires, which as I have pointed our before does not cost them anything.
