I'll keep a look out for them during my trip. Will be flying from Shanghai HongQiao to Shenzhen and later to Singapore. Will report anything if I see them. :D And also wouldn't it be obvious it they were teams because they MUST have video recorders so shouldn't the people following the teams have big bags?

Love you G-Man!!  :kuss:

But puddin and I both believe that we haven't missed them, and that they will most likely be starting the race sometime this week.  :tup:

And I personally think we will see a usual US start, no fancy shenanigans. 

So keep looking guys!!!

I think they should start at the LaBrea Tar Pits! That would make for some interesting TV, people running for their cars and getting stuck in the pits.
Just here to visit.

i will keep my eyes peeled in San Fran and Miami all day tomorrow!

and i will be keeping a watch in Guayaquil all throughout my trip, just in case they go to SA at the end of the race...

but even if i do get some info, it will have to wait until July 24th, when i get back (so hopefully i won't be the only one who sees them, if i do...)

Malaysian Borneo and a couple of cities Down Under are on my itinerary this coming month, wonder if I'd get lucky?

Given recent history, I'd wager that someone needs to set a stakeout at the Delhi airport.

I got lucky in Cairns once - in my youth.  :-[

Make sure you take your camera.

Oh wait, where am I?

I didn't get lucky in Manila. :'(

Someone should prob. stay in Mumbai airport as well, if that's the case. ;)
I'm baaaaaack!

With the Michael Jackson memorial being held there, I think we can be sure that the starting line will not be the Staples Centre in LA today. Or anywhere around there.

With all of the extra traffic in LA today it should be difficult to get away undetected.

RIP Michael  :'(

But couldn't they just make the pitstart of the race earlier so that they could catch their flight...OR we could have a team missing their flight and having to quit on the first leg. That would be funny.  :funny:

I'm sure they went somewhere else if the race were to start today. Plus, most of CBS' resources are all in LA to cover the memorial service.

Decided to join the friendly banter at RFF, and my favorite show. My husband is a flight attendant and he will be flying to Amsterdam, Montreal, Toronto, Frankfurt, Barcelona and possibly Munich and Barcelona in the coming month.

So any word of them traveling through Europe let me know. Although I wont have to prod him too much as he is a huge fan too. I know he will be on the lookout for any signs, route markers or  teams in his travels.

I think last year he missed the teams as they connected through Germany by just a few hours.

Hoping for a sighting this year! Will let ya know.
