So the detour is for the birds and for the elephant. Maybe both the detour must go to bandung zoo and bring from dago simpang market?
Still confused ._.

Ah so they will ride a taxi in Bandung, i don't live in Bandung but my friends who study there said that taxi is not safe and not recommended to travel in Bandung because the driver will cheat on the fares, a lot of them don't use taxi fare meters so the drivers will give a high price.

Though i believe this condition possibly happens a lot in TAR they just don't show it and probably the racers don't understand and just pay lol

I doubt ever seeing a self-drive in an Indonesia leg, i really anticipate this tbh

Driving in Bandung is unsafe, with many narrow, one way streets, and "angkot" everywhere. But I know this is gonna create drama <3333 Asian countries they allowed to self-drive is only Japan & Middle East countries & Borneo part of Malaysia?

Ohh sweet... the other Detour location located far away from the other one...  :oh :oh :oh

Pasar burung Sukahaji for "the birds" choice and Bandung city zoo for "the elephant" choice,

so apparently, Ice king girls choose "the elephant" and had to bring bananas, fruits, sugarcane (this is what to believed carrying plants from the LIVE sighting thread I posted before), bring those food to the elephant cage and feed them? also we had missing wheelbarrel, and the afghanimals also choose this one I think...

Distance between Pasar Burung Sukahaji and Bandung Zoo is about 45minutes with intense traffic jam at that time...

Ice king girls are sure pushed down below if they decided to switch detour :(






In Detour B, Married ER Doctors Nicole (left) and Travis (right) must pick up two birds at the Pasar Burung Sukahaji Bird Market then transport them to the Sumber Sari Bird Arena and encourage them to sing in order to receive the next clue on THE AMAZING RACE


->> Now please note that the Route Info clue Travis holding is the clue that they got after finishing the Detour...

This is the most important part..!!

We don't know for sure whether it's an Elimination or Non-Elimmination Leg yet..

But as our units observed there, there's a chance that the last team survived the leg, this is based on some scenarios :

1. The Leg is clearly a NEL
2. Tim & Marie and the Interracial Couple arrived at the Pit Stop NOT BY A TAXI, this could possibly resulted in a penalty for both teams..
3. Usually having 2 Legs in the same country and final 5 could be a NEL




Just curious , If they didn't arrive by taxi , how did they arrive ?

then why the clue that Travis was currently holding on that pic is a route info? does that mean they're already done? and what does that have to do with carrying watermelon???

Oh yeah, totally forgot about the one-way street  :funny:
let's just say the taxi took the wrong turn, they need to travel all the way back then right? not to mention the traffic lol.
ah yeah angkot is the very problem too in jakarta, and motorcyle made it worse and it is actually worse than angkot

So then, both detour is quite far.....

so from Bandung station, they choose north or south-> north to Bandung Zoo & Dago Market
south to Pasar Burung Sukahaji -> Sumber Sari Park.

Kinda interesting that both detours require teams to transport thing. I'm looking for the bird detour... It's interesting to watch :))

What I'm really :( is that Ally & Ashley choose to change the detour, While Bandung Zoo & Dago Market is quite near... and both detour is very far...
But what I'm thinking is if there is a wheelbarrow in bandung zoo, then why ally ashley don't use them to transport it from the market?  :ascared

Ugh, they were so screwed, I put the blame on Ashley. They didn't even ask the locals how far the bird was.

Cannot believe how much my opinion of teams just changed throughout that episode. I no longer want Nicole/Travis to win (Travis more so), Tim/Marie are now my favourites and I wont mind if (when...?) Boston win. More so, I'm now quite glad the Afghanimals are back for S24.

Don't know how the Ice Queens managed to blow an hour lead though... :groan:

very frustrating episode.

 Im glad that amy worked with  Nicole ( ER docs) that was nice  of them.

I'm so glad that Marie was insisting on Tim doing the detour.

 I cant imagine the frustration  if any of them were tone deaf.

And the fact that the taxi denied NHL team to put the sugar cane in the car :ugot what's up with that?

 I found it very frustrating.

I miss all the hard core  challenges they had in the past. .. How bout a good ol "PENCILS DOWN"  :lol3:

zero, zilch, nada, nothing!

I think the ice girls also didn't figure out a way to put the sugarcane in the taxi.. Let's just say the Detour killed them. Had they done birds, it might be Nicole and Travis we say Byebye to.

I agree the ice girls ineffectiveness at the road block cost them the game.I could not believe that they did not try to force the sugarcane or change taxis then. For a girl girl team I would have thought the birds sounded easier, but the lure of the elephant. I loved Tim and Marie's thinking it through and realizing that music was more Tim's thing.I t was nice of Amy to help Nicole, but was it the wrong choice.The Docs would probably have been eliminated.
