This route could end up a lot like TAR 6: USA -> Europe (Iceland first) -> Africa for one leg -> Europe -> Africa for one leg -> Asia -> USA

I've been in Baltimore all day so excuse me if I missed something. Perhaps they are in Zimbabwe, perhaps they aren't. I'm just not inclined to believe that these BB fans would know more information than us when it comes to a country and continent where I doubt many people know who "Jody" are. I also can't think for the life of me when Bertrum has ever been so uncreative to visit the exact same city in back to back seasons. That they really believed a photo from 2015 was current and that the same pitstop was being used shows me they have no idea what is going on, except for the information we got from a passenger that was told their going to Zimbabwe. I sincerely appreciate the help they have provided in Europe, but when it comes to Africa, it's anyones guess.

There was a legit sighting in the Harare airport. They confirmed seeing 6 teams.

Lots of people fell for the 2015 photo/

Lots of people fell for the 2015 photo, not just Jody fans. Don't be rude.  :groan:

I kept myself in check, but for a while today, I assumed you were purposefully trolling us with those photos :(

I saw several versions of that photo before I found the original post. The background sign was purposely covered up, one with something that purposely flamed us. The thing is by us ALL not working together, a disservice is being done especially to the Jody fans. They could have checked here with some of the more seasoned detectives. It's a shame.

No mean intentions at all. I think we're all confused and a lot of confusion could be saved by doing research and checking sources before selling something as fact. No big though, we'll find um again!

I found it on Twitter from a Jody fan. I don't troll.

The woman posted the pic on Facebook today but it was from an earlier season. It was an honest mistake on everyone's part.

Check my posts at location wishlists thread, there could be a possibly of having two legs in Southeast Asia and the other two in Australia. A reverse route of the first half of TAR 22.

Haven’t posted here in forever... I live in Australia (Melbourne) and I’m a huge Jody fan (Jessica is my fave player from recent BB seasons), so if they come here I can try to help, I‘m willing to even go to the airport and wait for them lol

Zimbabwe isn't dangerous, cause all of the international cricket teams go there. If it was very dangerous, they wouldn't go  :groan:

Is Zimbabwe even conformed?

Zimbabwe is pretty confirmed, if you read above you will see the photos, tweets, and responses to someone that was on the plane with racers who was told where they were headed.

As far as it "not being dangerous" there is a difference between soccer teams playing at a stadium and "make your way (by bus, train, car) to this location as TAR racers do.  Those warnings about dangers all came from the UK gov site, including the ban on an camouflage wear.  So if the buses, trains, and cars are all dangerous ways to travel, that could restrict activities for racers.  Ditto the warnings about poorly run and dangerous safari and animal santuary or zoo areas.

It's great to have you back! If you want to help if TAR visits your area, we keep a list of people's locations here: http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,29785.150.html

The last three consecutive seasons had Asia as the last continent and places in East Asia were the penultimate legs before finishing in the US and that may not going to do it agaijln. I could possibly Zimbabwe would give only one leg with a planned 30-32 hour extended Pit Stop in Harare before leaving to Southeast Asia.

So, we could be going to move on on a penultimate leg in the second Australian leg.

Oceanian legs at the end stages of the race is a rarity but Asian legs are very common

Once they get off the plane do they usually get a day rest? Someone just posted on the FB that they are doing 4x4 races at a Lodge today but they all arrived yesterday.

Aberfoyle Lodge maybe?

When they arrived in Zim, it was evening. It's morning there now.

Which means there won't be much difference b/w the teams. Roadblock is usually an easy part there where they might have to get a clue from victoria fall by locating via helicopter. Detour will decide this leg! And ofcourse the zimbabwe customs too :p

We have a thread for "wishlists".

We have a thread to discuss Jody.

Please try to keep THIS thread to actual SPOILER discussion?

Thanks guys, and welcome back old friends and NEW!

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they are in Zimbabwe an extra day. This seems like the set up for another of TAR's "let's build some community a school" projects.

DMH Law is at Eastgate Shopping Centre in Harare. Could the "lodge" be closer to the city?

Where did you find out that they are first two teams?
