For my 1000th post!!! :hearts: :hearts: :hearts: I just wanna say that I wish these awesome legs will keep coming, even until future seasons. :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

I enjoyed TAR25 and TAR26, and I really hope TAR keeps getting a good cast and a good route per season. I hope it will not be as bad as TAR24. Also, even though I like TAR26 so much, I do hope that the couples theme won't be repeated anymore.

I'm hoping for more years of awesome and amazing TAR!!! :wohoo: :cheer: :trampb: :luvya: :hearts: :hoot: :conf: :<3 :) :hrt: :hugs: :lol: :ihrtu :ty3: :tu

I also wish for more seasons to come no matter the circumstances. Perhaps 50-yrs+ teams will make a return next season. Another Peggy & Claire or Bill & Cathi for the newer audience will show that elders are able to run with the younger bunch and rock at it!

I wish for something called a " Joint Effort Detour "

Maybe for one season detours would be different instead of teams choosing which detour to do, they would have to both do a diffrent side of the detour. Eg: Track or Pack - Aly does track / Steve does pack and if your Uturned you'd both have to do the challenge you didn't do.

+1.

Yeah RachelLeVega, we want more TAR! <3 For a lot of years. hahah

A quick general route I'd love to see, which could make for a great 6 Continent Race.

Leg 1 - South America
Leg 2 & 3 - Asia
Leg 4 - Africa
Leg 5 & 6 - Oceania
Leg 7, 8, 9 - Europe
Leg 10 - South America (Again)
Leg 11 - New North American Country we haven't seen yet.

The only problem I see with this route though would be the awkwardness of having teams fly from Asia to Africa, just to backtrack to Oceania.  :(  But it would be great too see Oceania placed mid-race, rather then at the start or end, which is where we usually always see it.

That's gonna be terrific and crazy route! Team will probably shocked from the long flight jump too. But as I do a little experiment in Google Map, it's pretty likely it's gonna travel around 60,000 miles++ which I think the budget nowadays cannot afford it. (AKA, double leg everywhere)  :funny: :funny:

I also agree the Oceania during mid-race would be awesome, maybe they still can handle it if the route go something like this. South America (1,2) -> Europe (3,4) -> Africa (5,6) -> Oceania (7,8) -> Asia (9,10,11) -> USA (12).

I really missed 6 continents race though, when is the last time we get it? Season 5?  :( :(

Or maybe something like this:
Africa (1,2) -> Europe (3,4) -> Asia (5,6,7) -> Oceania (8,9) ->
South America (10,11) -> USA (12).
(A long overdue Africa start, Asia in middle race of 6 continent route. Leg 8-11 route is the reverse of TAR13 Leg 1-4 route.)

South America (1,2) -> Oceania (3,4) -> Asia (5,6,7) -> Europe (8,9) -> Africa (10,11) -> USA (12).
(Only logical way for 6 continent route with Africa in penultimate legs, again Asia in middle race. The Leg 1-4 route looks like TAR13 though.)

I know there is a thread for this but it's stuck in the Tar 26 folder so I thought I'd make a new one  :)

What countries do you reckon or what countries do you want to be visited in the upcoming seasons

For Tar 27 I think returns to South Korea, Australia & Brazil are needed. We could possibly see a new country something like the Bahamas or Barbados. Also I have a hunch they'll visit China again and if they do please let It be Beijing or Zhangjiajie. What do you think Tar 27 will look like?

Not sure if this is a wishlist or a spec thread, ??? but I say the Philippines should have at least one leg with 9 to 11 teams still racing.

Maybe they will fulfill our wish by giving us an African Leg 1 soon? ??? I hope they do.

How about those islands in Oceania for penultimate legs? ???

That's all I can predict. :lol:

I kind of predict 1/2 legs for India next season. (Maybe Russia too, but please not be Moscow or St.Petersburg) It had been a while since we get last India.  :( :( We need more chaotic leg and India definitely bring it. 

Oceania is a bit overdue too since Bora Bora and NZ from 22. I think 1/2 Oceania would be nice, Probably that canceled Melbourne from 24? I'd like to see Papau New Guinea , Solomon islands or Fiji too.

I think we might get no Africa next season since they're doing Africa for 2 consecutive season in a row.  :'( But if they wanna do, revisit Madagascar, Zambia, South Africa, Egypt or Tunisia is good. I kinda hold my breathe for Cape Verde and Comoros too.

For South America, I don't know if Colombia, Venezuela or Guyana is safe enough for them to have a leg there? 1 or 2 legs in those countries would be nice especially at the end of the race. Or if they wanna reuse, Bolivia is cool for me.

If they wanna do new country in Europe again, aka Monaco and Malta. Please do Luxembourg , Andorra + Spain or Latvia/Belarus. I don't understand why they keep revisiting Amsterdam and Germany. If they wanna reuse country, Greece or Finland please! I wanna see Iceland again too but with the budget cut, I think this is very doubtful.  :'( :'(
