TAR Wishlist - locations, routes, twists, teams, tasks & dreams!**NO SPOILERS**
Zack.:
So I recall mentioning how I skipped over 27 on the last page. Well...
Leg 1 - Arcadia, CA to Guam - as it turns out Guam is more than promotional material for the military (no disrespect to those who served). There's actual culture and beaches and...given this show likely some sort of task that results in three teams quitting. NEL though because it's been a while since we've had a leg 1 nonelim.
Leg 2 - Guam to Banaue, Philippines - so they probably can't redo broken ox again even though it would be EPIC with 11 teams. Nope, I'm imagining a far more torturous hunt through a bunch of rice paddies and also some variation of Jig and/or Pig.
Leg 3 - Philippines to Luang Prabang, Laos - if the previous leg were 'foresty physical leg' then this leg would be 'foresty cultural leg'. Bonus points if this is in monsoon season because we haven't had a rainy leg in ages.
Leg 4 - Laos to Madurai, India - I believe I said something to the effect of 'in my dream TAR 27 we go back to India'.
Leg 5 - India to Tbilisi, Georgia - nighttime leg? Sure! Because I'm a horrible person, after all the eating and drinking and merriment this is def a TBC <3
Leg 6 - Georgia to Stepantsminda, Georgia - your token adventure time leg, starting in Tbilisi and ending up several thousand feet above sea level.
Leg 7 - Georgia to Goreme, Turkey - Cappadocia <3 Fairy chimneys, underground cities, actual artifacts of things, and not pretending to dazzle viewers by going to Istanbul just to say we went into and out of Asia.
Leg 8 - Turkey to Venice, Italy - Venice is going to sink at some point so we might as well get the summer leg it deserves out of the way. Detour will absolutely be a choice between "Merchant of Venice" and "Death in Venice" which involves either fileting meet or wearing pounds of makeup lol.
Leg 9 - Italy to San Marino, San Marino - This would be your token 'car' leg; since TAR was okay with teams driving 215 km JUST to get to a Pit Stop I don't see the harm in them driving a third of Italy to get to their first Route Info <3
Leg 10 - San Marino (to Italy) to Goree Island, Senegal - Every season of TAR there's a leg in which people watch poor people live their lives as usual. This is that leg. I imagine most of the leg will occur on the island, which also allows for a lot of 'make your way on foot' clues <3
Leg 11 - Senegal to Dakar, Senegal - I believe Plat ALSO wanted a penultimate leg in Africa so yay it fits <3
Leg 12 - Senegal (to New York City) to Niagara Falls, NY - Niagara Falls is one of the few finish lines that I've actually visited and there was SO MUCH they could've done - the casino, Twist of the Mist, going out to the Observation deck, exploring the various state parks, etc. Teams would fly from Dakar to JFK and then take charter flights to a ~mystery destination~ that conveniently arrive in the morning on the next day instead of burning time climbing ships and breaking into stadiums and whathaveyou.

I'm a newcomer here, and always a TAR fan!!!
I'm posting a wishlist 'bout the pre-season 27... :waves:
*Pretty sure India will make a comeback as double legs ( New Delhi/Hyderabad/or Chennai, anyone?)
*Australia has'nt been visited since TAR18 and cancelled in TAR24 (would like to see Brisbane and Melbourne!!!)
* Is there possibilities that the route would be from east-west???
* Wish that Argentina and South Africa would visit this season!
* New countries like:
- Latvia ( the only baltic state was'nt visited UNLIKE Lithuania and Estonia)
- San Marino (If there's a chance to see this so, Italy is its nearest...)
- Laos
- Maldives!!!
- Macedonia (historical sightings!)
- Bulgaria
- East Timor/Brunei legs! haha!
:hearts: :hearts: :hearts:
Declive:
Great ideas! And welcome to RFF!

:) :) :)
Just a guess...
from West to East:
Leg 1: Los Angeles, CA to Australia- putting up a Starting Point in Beverly Hills' Greystone Mansion and then travel to Brisbane.
Leg 2: Australia- from Brisbane to Melbourne!
Leg 3: Australia to Maldives- Best to add Maldives here!
Leg 4: Maldives to India- from Male to Chennai
Leg 5: India - Hyderabad
Leg 6: India to Greece - best not to visit Athens but Santorini is!
Leg 7: Greece to Latvia- I think there's two options for a flight to Riga, it's either Santorini or to Athens...
Leg 8: Latvia to Italy- this From Riga to Rimini, Italy for flights.
Leg 9: Italy to San Marino - take a train, duh!
Leg 10:San Marino to Spain- Barcelona is the shortest flight avail from San Marino
Leg 11: Spain- Must be from Barcelona to Madrid!
Leg 12: Spain to Boston, Massachussetts - for the first time!
TARloveit:
I think you have your directions wrong, but maybe I'm being dumb myself. Wouldn't a west to east route start in North or South America and have its penultimate leg in Asia or Oceania?
