Leg 1 - Russia (Vladivostok)
Leg 2 - Indonesia (Denpasar)
Leg 3 - Sri Lanka (Negombo)
Leg 4 - Uzbekistan (Samarkand)
Leg 5 - Benin (Ouidah) NEL
Leg 6 - Benin (Abomey-Calavi/Ganvie)
Leg 7 - Morocco (Casablanca)
Leg 8 - Morocco/Spain (Tangier/Madrid) TBC
Leg 9 - Spain (Toledo)
Leg 10 - Spain/Andorra/France (Barcelona/Andorra/Midi-Pyrenees)
Leg 11 - Peru (Lake Titicaca) NEL
Leg 12 - United States (Salt Lake City)

Notes:
- Starting Line city would be San Francisco, then teams would race to Vladivostok which is also known as the 'San Francisco of Russia'  ;)
- Denpasar is way overdue
- 3 countries in Leg 10 is very hectic, but achievable. The Detour would be in Barcelona, RB in Andorra, and Pit Stop in Midi Pyrenees :)
- I think it would be VERY interesting to see a Speed Bump in the final Leg... who's with me?
Very cool route!

Very interesting route! I always want to see Russia in the first leg. :hearts:

Although I still want that they visit other city other than Denpasar, Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Mataram, and Surabaya... :(



Just realized that this is my 100th post (not counting my posts in Fantasy Games Board)!! :hearts: :hearts: :yess: :yess:

I'm happy your 100th post is about me! :lol:

I'm glad you guys like it! If I can get around to it, I'll create a Wiki page with the whole design of the race so you can see what happens :)
Kamineko, I have changed the Indonesia Leg to South Kalimantan just for you :)
and I think a Speed Bump in the Final Leg would be fine, as long as it was the first challenge and there was a difficult challenge right after it :tup:

Here's a map for those who prefer visuals! (I don't know why I highlighted Netherlands as visited, my bad!)
Thank you... That's so nice of you. :hrt: You even changed your route just for me... :-[

Anyway, I just wonder, how did you create a map like that? Where did you get the blank map? I always want to make a map like that, but I can't find the blank one... :duno:

Hi guys!

I am going to ask that if you MUST use a map, that you resize it to no more than 640 X 480, okay? We need all pages loading smoothly and quickly for everyone, and a lot of large maps in the wishlist thread are going to slow things down.

Thanks!

In a future race say like 25, how about having fan favorite previous racers
handing out clues or being with Phil on the Pit Stop.
It could reflect their skills, or some previous leg they had won.
Hmmmm.

I also hope for a start or finish some day in Texas, (or even a visit)
Houston is one the five biggest cities in the USA.
We also got Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin, all over a million.
