My running thoughts ...

The numbers are the order in which teams hit the starting gate.  I suspect we will have a bunch point before the Roadblock where teams must pull numbers for their starting order.  The runners will leave the starting line at set intervals (e.g., 2 minutes apart), thus having the opportunity to pass runners and improve their placing.

I thought that seeing Margie in a car meant different start and finish lines.  But Uncle Bill's thought of Margie being available for Luke's communication makes sense.  We need more video evidence.

A 2-3 mile run would be tough for any non-runner.  I would be surprised if the run was that long.

 :yess:  finally got it!  This preview had me stumped...but not any more.  It's a view of the parking area from the October Bridge (which Slowhatch id'd earlier).  So now we have a tie-in with the long view of the bridge in the previews.  What they do in this school bus minibus (marshrutka) parking lot is anyone's guess.   :lol:

I think I missed something? Leaves who behind? What clue?

And we have running, and the stick shift...

So where does the ballet come in? Just a get a clue place, or "something fun"?

Ready, set, strip! Racers Run Wild. One team turns on two others-until it no longer suits their needs. One team goes for the fun-will their party priorities pay off?


Could that be a FF? Would we have a FF and a NEL together? ???

It's happened - the tattoo was an NEL, so was the Chas' wild ride, the Paolo bungee jump and that scary ass cooling tower crawl in South Africa (the last two which were also leg 5).

Well if a team were to take a FF the only evidence we have are Mike & Mel so far not doing a task. I say we wait for more evidence though.

Following up on my earlier post, I think the running Roadblock has the same start/finish line.   Thanks puddin for the video evidence.


Sorry about that.  Once I posted and reviewed the picture, I now have a different take on this vidcap.  Now I think this group is cheering the stick shift event.

The only hit I got off "premier" was a computer store at 32 sovetskaya (map).
Is he driving a snowplow or some railroad thingy?

I think Mark is driving something like a bobcat with tracks. Carrying that box in front somewhere.

He is driving a bobcat of some what with a convyer belt  on the side and he has to follow the lines of tires  and they are scooped up on the belt and onto a truck or something the bottom of the conver belt you can see the form of a scoop. It looks like they have to scoop up the tires.  Just like we do to collect hay and it gets baled.
You can see the other rows of tires

I think its a snow melter - normally it picks up snow in the front and feeds it to a boiler in the back that melts it - then the snow goes down the storm sewers.
Hopefully they're not melting tires...

I think it is very possible.
TAR 7 Leg 5:  Ray and Deana do a SCARY FF!  Gretchen gets hurt and her team has to lose all of their belongings.
TAR 6 Leg 7:  Lori and Bolo drink that delicious pig's blood, and come in 1st!  Hayden and Aaron bicker and get lost and are saved, but lose all of their money.
It didn't happen last season, so they might do it this season.

But this appears to be Mike cheering, and in the other shots, he is the one in the big machine with Mark yelling at him (with no crowds cheering).  Besides, the running task appears to be the roadblock which means the other task(s) would be a detour in which case both Mike & Mark would be working on it.  My guess is that this shot is Mike cheering on Mark on the running roadblock.

The shots of Margie/Luke, Tammy/Victor do appear to be in a car (the stick shift detour?) so maybe the shot of Mike/Mark in whatever machine that is with the tires is either the other detour or a Fast Forward!!

Any odds that this is a TBC leg? CBS website not putting up a preview is odd and now we have Phils diary labeled EP5 which is obviously for EP4 pitstop.

This is the best I can manage so far. The conveyor belt/dump truck combo allows work in urban areas where snow can't be tossed aside. I can't explain the blades in the cap, though (if they are blades); blades wouldn't be used in the city.

Could be possible...  I don't remember CBS ever saying 12 LEGS.  They only said 12 episodes.

Is that a radio/TV tower in the background?  Wonder if it matches this one I found in Novosibirsk.  :duno:
