And we're off!

Previously on The Amazing Race Asia...

Eleven teams converged in Jakarta for the adventure of a lifetime! A twist at the start sent teams running to avoid an Instant Elimination. Their navigation skills were tested but nothing could help Lisa & Nicole find their way.

The remaining teams then had to Fix or Freight, and the frustrations were felt all-around.

At the Route Marker, Alphaeus & Brandon moved to the front of the pack while siblings Rei & Keiji faltered.

Nine teams remain, who will be eliminated next?

Alex & Will guess. They are wrong and decide to go again. They are EXTREMELY lost and memorised the whole words instead of specific letters.

Meanwhile, other teams are stuck in traffic.

At the Route Info: Will & Alex are wrong. Now they're on their FOURTH attempt!

Both detour sides seem interesting so far, and they are equally challenging too. Brandon & Alphaeus are surely making a smart move. :hoot:

We're back!

Tom & Anita arrive at the same side of the Bandung Biathlon Detour with Yvonne & Chloe. Eric & Rona arrive too.

Oops I forgot about Will & Alex :lol: They just arrived at the Detour in last.

Anita is frustrated with the task. They, however, pass the other two teams doing the shooting.

@ Basket Bikes:

Rach & Vicky are still struggling.

Rach: I want to go faster but I'm gonna hatch these eggs :lol:

Parul & Maggie break half of their eggs.

Alphaeus & Brandon finish and are told to head... to the Pit Stop? Whuuut? It shows a clue box. I'm confused.

@Basket Bikes:

Oops I'm wrong. JK & Mike aren't done IM SORRY EVERYONE I WAS JUST SICK  :tantrum

They're told to try again.

@Bandung Biathlon: Alex & Will are at the stations now. They're doing the first.

@Basket Bikes:

JK & Mike are fighting. Mike isn't answering JK. JK is pissed.

Mike just drops his bike. He's frustrated. He's so mad at JK. "Just don't talk to me right now".
